Have you ever actually won the lottery, even a small prize?

I have never individually bought a lottery ticket. I have had a few tickets given to me as a Christmas gift, and I have contributed money to a few office pools to purchase tickets when the power ball got enormous, but I have never won jack shit. . . which is why I never buy lottery tickets on my own.

I have never won the lottery but I've won stuff before.
The best one was one of those big, rear projection TV sets with picture in picture capability in 1984 before flat screens came out. It was worth about $2000 back then. I had it for years.

One time, at a wine tasting event, they had three raffle prizes. I bought an arm's length of tickets for $20.
The crowd applauded when I won the first one. It was a bottle of good wine. When they called my ticket number tor the second one (two bottles of good wine), the crowd was jealous but polite. When my number was called the third time for a nice wooden box with four bottles of expensive Bordeaux) the crowd got kind of ugly. LOL.

That night, because of my lucky streak, my wife suggested that we buy some tickets for the big California lottery. I didn't win.

I have won other smaller things at raffles. And I have won a bit of cash playing Black Jack and slots in casinos. No big bucks, though. I'm not really a gambler.

I once won $100 in a McDonalds raffle without even knowing they had a raffle going on. My dad bought Big Macs for everyone in our family and I noticed they had a raffle code attached so I scanned the code and learn I won money. That was a few years ago, and I do not remember whether I won $100 or $200. But McDonalds is very generous with their prizes, I won around a $50 photo book prize at least once, and possibly 2 or 3 times. Every 1-4 trips there, I get enough points for a free breakfast sandwich through their reward system.

I almost never play unless it's one of those times its like 1 billion and everyone is talking about it, but one place I used to work everyone liked to play, I think we each got like $65 once was it

[Iron_Man]

Yeah, I won another lottery ticket scratch off. I won five dollars. That’s about it. Complete waste of time honestly

[ChiTown33]

Sort of yes. I bought a winning ticket and gave it as a gift for Christmas and it was a 10,000 dollar winner.

Oops.🤣

No my family and I don’t have that kind of luck.
we are meant to work for our money. At lease we are doing well.

[NathanDavis]

I think I won $200 one time. There's a lady who runs the bodega on the ground floor of my building and her brother won $2 million a few years ago.

[CaptainSmartass]

I've won a couple of quid here and there. The biggest win I've ever has was about £10.

Simples...
