It’s only Saturday and it feels like it’s Christmas Eve. Whys that? The Super Raffle, that’s why. I’m all caught up in the craze! It hit me even harder today when I went in to buy my Mega Millions ticket while I stopped to get some o so expensive gas. There it was, the sign boasting the 2 million dollar prize! In all it’s glory to the point where I just had to ask the cashier when it starts and then shoot the shit a little with him about how I plan on winning it. Of course I know when it starts, but I’m like a little kid right now talking about his favorite toy over and over and over. Even though nobody really cares what I’m talking about or the fact everybody has heard it 2 million times….ok small bad pun I threw in there. The point is, I’m highly anticipating the release of the Super Raffle and have very high hopes of at least winning $500. If I win that, then i’ll make more then enough to pay for all of this years losses along with mega million tickets for the rest of the year!! At best, I’ll have enough for a couple other millionaire or super raffles to boot along with a ton of scratch and wins as they come out. Will I use the 500 for my lottery fund? As in, keep an up to date record of what I spent and I can only spend it with the 500 bucks? Maybe I will.
On another note when I was checking out michigan.gov.lottery I noticed they did a new redesign of the site!! It’s great! Well compared to the last basic looking one where you had to click the individual games to find the numbers. This new interface shows all the latest numbers for all the games and has a nice header that overall gives the feeling your in a casino style environment. The glitz and glamor are there for the viewing to greet the viewer with a nice feeling. Needless to say, they posted the wrong numbers!! They posted the numbers that they drew, not the numbers that I have. Bah, O well, I guess complaining won’t really help.

so how’s your strategy? gonna buy another 7 tickets?

I’d love to drop down 7 tickets for a 1 in 8 chance to win at least 500 bucks, but 350 is just to much to throw on a lottery game. I’ll only be buying 1 this time around.
