How often do you play the lottery and what is the most you have won?

I don't normally play the lottery, but I have a lot of friends that do the scratch off's and seem to think they win a lot more than they spend. I don't know if they keep track or not. I was thinking about playing them, but there are so many to choose from! Do you play and if so, do you think you win more than you lose?

I usually play the lotto once or twice a week. THe most I have won is about $20. I only have ever got 3 numbers and a supplementary number. So far I have definately lost more that I have put into it. But I still play each week in the hope to win big one day. I love to dream, life as a millionaire would be bliss.

I once won 100 $ in a cruise while playing Tambola if you consider it as a lottery.

I used to play, but I never won more than ten dollars. Of course, this was before I learned certain things. One of the things you want to keep track of with scratch tickets is which games have already given out all their big prizes and those which have not. There is no point in paying a game where all the big prizes have already been awarded.

I often buy scratch tickets every week, I sometimes win $2 - $12. But most of the time I lose. I think the most I have won on a scratch ticket is $50. I also put a lotto ticket in usually every week, I have only ever won about $20 on lotto. So I spend a lot more then I win.
