it's warm this morning.compared to what it has been the last few days.

 

[db1959]

yep. he put the call in at 9 and told them he had to be there at 10. He rolled in at 10:30. He did keep me up to date though on what was happening.

Our normal night for PB tickets sold is around 20 a day.
Yesterday, 116. It's all we could get done.

You probably had people like me asking for $5 in quick picks.

 

[MrsGungho]

I was gonna say, it's 20 here

people that had never played "what do I do?"

had one dude get 50 tickets and didn't blink an eye

 

[db1959]

I bought some this morning. I asked for $5 in quick picks. the lady laughed at me and said "you don't play much do you?" I said "no, what gave it away?" She said "it is $2 a play"

 

[MrsGungho]

Yep

I did get that too

I just smiled and said pretty much the same thing

 

[db1959]

Power Play option winning any prize other than the jackpot will win a larger cash prize.

 

[MrsGungho]

[SEIndSAM]

yeah that did happen a time or two

people that had never played "what do I do?"

had one dude get 50 tickets and didn't blink an eye

I saw a guy ask for 88 single tickets....

 

[db1959]

Morning Sam!

Thanks MrsG

 

[SEIndSAM]

Soooo, nobody won???

 

[db1959]

not the big prize

 

[MrsGungho]

I saw a guy ask for 88 single tickets....

I would have refused to do it

I had lines to the door all night

if they wanted a large amount of tickets, they got tickets with multiples of 10 on each one. It was busy for sure.

there would be 1 or 2 people in store, one of us would sneak off to go pee or take a break, look again, line to the door.

 

[MrsGungho]

all I can say is when that damn "Powerball closed" popped on the screen, I was so ****ing happy
