Words to the wise
So you’ve bought a Mega Millions Lottery Tickets, Megamillions, Megamillion, Mega Million, Powerball Lottery Tickets, Powerball Tickets and Powerball Online ticket along with your
gasoline and chili dog at the Gulp-n-Blow. Now what?
Experts say your work isn’t done:
- Photocopy your ticket. Keep the
original in a safe place, apart from the copy.
Write your name on the ticket somewhere, with the
words “ticket owner.” People have been awarded
prizes by being able to prove that they indeed
owned the destroyed ticket, says Catlin. If you
buy tickets with a group of people, photocopy the
tickets and give everyone a copy.

Go ahead, scratch in public. “In just about every case, the
scratch tickets are a better bet than the lottery,” Catlin says. Why? The
lottery usually returns about half of the money to the players. By
contrast, most states’ scratch games return close to 60% or more.
