You know that Mrs. HM has a favorite cashier where she buys her scratchers. Even though I go there every day, I seem to have more winners from Fave than from the other cashier at the Gas Station Chicken Store. Saturday, I cashed in a $50 winner on a $5 ticket.
"I hit the Instant $50 symbol. Not sure which of your two rolls it was from."
"Oh! Another lady was just in here, and she had an Instant $50 winner on it, too. I don't know if she bought it here, though."
"That's okay. I wasn't going to buy another one of those tickets today, anyway, after just winning on it."
"That lady was really happy to win $50. She cashed it in and got that newest $50 ticket there (pointed to the ticket case) and won $500 on it! She had me scan it to make sure. I said, 'It's a $500 winner, but I can't cash it for you. I can only go up to $300.' Still, she was really happy."
I did okay. Got two $5 crosswords, and a $5 red ticket that Genius won his $1000 on. I won back $25. Not great, but not bad. Now I have to wait until Thursday when Fave is back on duty.
Oh, I'll still be buying my scratchers. I just won't be so optimistic about winning.
