Found $10 bill next to one of the gas pumps this am...I had already used my card to fill the truck up so I decided to get one of the new Colorado 35mil scratchers.......NO, I didn't win the big one ....

BUT THIS SURE PUT A SMILE ON MY FACE FOR THE WEEKEND

I hope this is how the weekend dig for round 10 is going to go!!!!!!

Would this count as a Wildcard finds?

what were the total winnings on the scratcher?

<< <i>what were the total winnings on the scratcher? >>

I can't tell by looking at that ticket what's a winner and what isn't. If I had to guess I'd say you won $10 (two rows of solid 5's). Am I right?

eyoung429 · February 9, 2007 3:14AM

Nope....each number is the amount added to the next....

You take the numbers at the top of the card and scratch off the numbers below. If they match, you win the dollar amount under the matching number and then add them all up.

$200.00 is the total

top row: $5x5= $25
2nd row: $20x2= $40 + $5x3= $55
3rd row: $20x2= $40 + $5x3= $55
4th row: $5x5= $25
5th row: $5x4=$20+$20=$40

$25+$55+$55+$25+$40= $200

goldrush00013 · February 9, 2007 5:14AM

Cool!
I hit for $500 3 days before christmas.

WTG!

SWEET!!!! Now you pocket $180 and get two more of those tickets.

lordmarcovan · February 9, 2007 6:42AM

What was that, 200 bucks on a $10 ticket? WTG! That's a helluva find for the Wildcard category!
Congrats!

I hit $500 on a $2 ticket, once. I don't ever spend more than two bucks for a ticket, and I only buy one or two a month, if that.

WTG Earl

I've never bought a scratch ticket, but get them as gifts on occasion. I'll buy one powerball ticket anytime it gets above 200mil.
As for category... I'd say the $10 bill is a wildcard find, and the ticket was a lucky purchase.
