PINK: Virginia Ave, odds 1 in 200 million, wins $10,000 ORANGE: Tennessee Ave, odds 1 in 602 million, wins Super Bowl tickets.

At our house we have instantly won a Quarter Pounder, Fries, and a free 8x8 picture book from shutterfly. And all we have purchased is coffee and hot chocolate. I've never won anything from Powerball. |

Last year I did like the dud from Real Genius. I sent in for game pieces. 50 envelopes gets you 200 squares. no money just a ton of food. |

Did the food prizes add up to more than the $24.50 postage? Actually postage was over $50 you had to pay for both ways. and it did. I gave most of it away to people who came into the food pantry at Salvation Army when I was volunteering there. I think the only ones I really kept was breakfast |

there was a guy in milwaukee who bought a big mac and the two stickers were boardwalk and park place. it was like a billion to one shot or something like that. they didnt pay him lump sum... rather 50k/yr (which he has to take taxes out every year) for 20 years. he was only 30 years old and unemployed when he won, so he will have to go back to work when he is 50. |
