Who says Friday the 13th is unlucky?
:) I bought some scratch-off lottery tickets on Friday, and I just checked them this morning. I spent $15 on Friday---one $5 ticket and five $2 tickets. Well, I won $9 on one of the $2 tickets, $18 on one of the $2 tickets, and $10 on the $5 ticket. :D That's $37. When I went back today to cash in the tickets, I got four more of the $2 tickets and the rest in cash. When I checked the new tickets, I won another $9. :D For my original $15 investment, I won $46. After getting the four new tickets with my earlier winnings, I actually have $38 in cash---that's a $23 profit after the original investment. Pretty good if you ask me. :)

Now if only Powerball would pay off like that... :rofl:
