My niece (9 years old) had a dream that I won $50 in the lottery. She told me this on Sunday. I went to the kiosk in Publix on Sunday in GA. I won $50 on "The Price Is Right" scratcher. I only bought one ticket.

Yes! My neighbor bought one ticket for $20 dollars in the local vending machine & won 10k a week for life! Amazing because no one ever uses that vending machine- they stand in line to buy tickets- meanwhile the vending was holding the big ticket!

I'm in Florida, went to Winn Dixie and bought five $10 tickets on a scratch off I had been having good luck with. I went home scratched them, no winners. I thought 5 tickets in a row with no winner, no way, went back to the store bought the next ticket and won $500. Luck I guess. 🙂

I enjoy watching other people gambling 🎰

The only big winner I ever got was from a vending machine, 10,000 dollars.

I like the vending machine because most people don't play repeatedly at the machine. Also, the other night the cashier was playing tickets on her shift. So it's logical that when she wins she'll stop on that roll. I've had several $500 winners from the machine. Just got a few tickets from Publix service desk. Looking forward to your next session. Thanks

There is absolutely no way I could buy a $50 ticket and not win a dime 🤬 THIS IS A RICH MANS GAME 😂

I've never won over $50 and I've been playing since they started in Texas. In the early 80's a co-worker of my Mom's won $790,000. She had 7 years until retirement and kept working. That's what has always stuck with me.

The vending machines look cool, I’ll give them that much, but I’ll stick with over the counter all the way. I’ve never won anything big out of them, but I’ve heard good stories like an employee from our local Walmart won a few grand off of it once. My reason I stick to otc is because I live out in a rural area, and I feel like they don’t really touch the rolls out here as much as they would in a town or major city. I always try my best to hit up the ones that look the most well stocked because I feel like once it gets closer to the end of the rolls, a majority of what’s left is the duds. Just my thoughts because it’s randomly done on where the claimers will be. Anyways, last year for Christmas I went to my local shop where I get my oil changed and bought around $150 worth of $3 tickets for my family and it was a pretty fresh roll of them and one of them won $30 off me, another $100 and my dad won $500. So ever since then I like to choose over the counter and places that aren’t touched much.

I've always had better luck with over the counter. Just got a 10X symbol on a $10 Jumbo Bucks ticket with $5 under it for a $50 winner and the hard $20 win on a $1 ticket. Also a $5 and a few $2 and $1 wins for a total of $81 in wins.

I only ever buy otc. I personally like the “$50 or $100” ticket. It’s $10, or any of the “Loteria” tickets, $5, $10, or $20. I have the most luck with those. I like doing the $5 bingo too but rarely win those ones. I like the ones that are different than the typical cards. That’s when I have the most luck. I also have the Texas lottery app and check the prizes before I buy any tickets. A lot of the time the high prizes are already gone or there’s only 1-2 high prizes left. I usually try to get tickets that have at least 1/2 the top prizes remaining.

Over here in the southwest region of Houston the lottery is having people put up screens with the tickets but also the ticket number every time it is bought it changes to the next ticket number. Which is something I like because I can keep track of how many tickets were bought each day I go to store to know if I can hit and it always happens. I win. Also I like the machines too but it’s hard because you don’t know if it’s loaded backwards and what number you’re getting. Just won $50.00 on a 5$ ticket at the machine.

I like your persistence and calm attitude as you scratch. Always good to see people that play responsibly!

Making a video about scratching off tickets is winning the lottery. I’m sure you make more off of YT than you ever made on tickets. Well played sir.

I haven't seen one of the new digital lottery machines at HEB or Walmart in San Antonio yet. Gotta go now. You left me curious.😁

Many years ago, when the scratch offs first came out, we were at the state fair and for a dollar you got a newspaper, a handbag and a chance at winning a brick of scratch off‘s. They put a little girl in the box of all the entries, I stood in front of a very very large crowd and yelled dig dig dig dig dig to the little girl. She was digging away and lifted up the winning ticket which was “ME”. LOL. I picked up the brick at the state lottery office. There are 250 in a brick. At that time they had $5000 winners and I thought maybe maybe maybe. All together I won $134. Just over 50%, just like your payout in your challenge. Thanks for the video!

Good evening Fixin Family. I prefer to get my tickets otc, so I can ask what # there on. And if they know you well enough, they'll tell you if someone won big on any tickets. I don't mind buying them out of the machine either, but I think that's the more riskier route. Love the challenge, but it would be more interesting if all the tickets you bought from both the vending and OTC were on the same #'s. Probably take you a while to get the same ticket # and you may have to go to 20 different places. Lol.

Good Morning Fixin family!!! Good luck on your profit session today Matt 💵💵💵💵💵💵💵💵💵

I sold a whole roll of one-dollar tickets in a convenience store in Kentucky. I knew the one-dollar tickets were supposed to pay a minimum of $50 for each $1 roll of 300 tickets. But how it paid out that roll was a different story. People hoping for a $50 paid day with a $1 ticket were disappointed. The largest roll paid out from the purchase of a $1 ticket paid out $4 at most. That roll was loaded by the person from the Kentucky lottery at the beginning of my shift and the last ticket was sold in the last 15 minutes of my shift. It was a Saturday.

Awesome safe on the OTC ticket 💲💲 Like you say..It only takes one!!!! You & Mrs. Fixin have a fabulous week🙏💖😉🙋

Good morning Mr.Fixen have a wonderful Day to you and your family.

Good morning my Fixin Family. I was starting to feel bad with the over the counter tickets until the 2X showed up

I think location is key in finding lottery success. It's been my observation that the biggest scratch off ticket jackpot winners in my state-NC-come from out of the way small towns and cities, many of which I've never heard of. Occasionally a winner will come from one of the larger metro cities but most are from the smaller locations that have smaller populations.

Good morning Mr fixin and Mrs Fixin have blessed day 💞

I don't buy from vending machines because they ones I've seen either tell you there are tickets available or they're sold out. I play ten consecutive tickets from the same game and the fact that these machines don't dispense change is another reason I avoid them. At least buying from the counter the attendant can tell me, "oh, we're out" or "we only have 6-7-8, do you want them?" whereas the machine does not.

Happy Monday scratching family. The new tickets come out today. Yeahhhh. I buy mostly from over the counter corner store Super K. They have given me 2lottery bags by 2 different owners. I just need the money 💵💰. It's our time. Good luck 🤞 everyone.

when buying tickets you don't need to move around. you need to buy all from same row if something is there you will get it. Skipping around gives you a worse odd

I wish our Walmart sold Lotto tickets. But then again that might be dangerous 😜 for me😊 Great you won some $$ back. Have a great day

I LIKE TO SPREAD OUT MY TICKETS AT MANY STORES ,I DONT LIKE TO CHASE TICKETS, BUT NEVER LEAVE THE LAST ONE HANGING

Thank you Matt that was a close one and I am glad it wasn't a bust session and congrats 🥳🥳🥳

Last ticket for the save and this session was a edge of the seat video. Thank you for sharing 😎🤗 Happy Memorial Day weekend 🇺🇸🇺🇸

Good morning Matt and marmy best of luck to you sir I gotta try this challenge for sure maybe this Thursday I'll do it to see how it goes 🤑🤑🤑💥

Very interesting video. Took a few moments to read the 'Wizard of Odds' section on the Texas Lottery. With an average return of 60% I'll stick with gambling here in Nevada (I think video poker is a better bet). However, it seems the high end tickets ($50) have the best return up at almost 80%, so maybe you are on to something. Good luck and thanks for sharing.

Good morning Matt! I’m in New York, and I like to buy my tickets from over the counter. I don’t seem to have any luck win I purchase from the vending machines. Good luck on your session! Thanks for sharing.

My personal luck is over the counter. All of my 11 claimers are over the counter. The best from a machine is 1 $500 in Gainesville Tx. In January of this year. Be safe and be blessed

That was an awesome challenge. I have never purchased tickets from a vending machine. The last ticket save was right on time. I didn't get car sick in the back seat. Y'all take care and stay safe. Blessings Always Ms. P. 👍🏼❤🤑👍🏼

Good video! I watch your videos every day and I would like to show you my luck with these tickets as well. I hope you get a claimer soon.

The only difference IMO between getting scratch offs from a vending machine and a person working the counter at a convenience store, truly is the convenience of it (machine 100%). After realizing I became 'that guy' at the gas station getting scratch offs, I flat out stopped buying them at my local gas stations. You know what I mean by 'that guy'. It might be easy to say gimme 2 of these, 3 of those, and two quick pick same ticket (cause the ATMs smallest is $20 and it's Wednesday). But that takes way more time then the normal 'a pack of red shorts and forty on two'. So after that realization, vending machine all the time for my scratchers now. Now instead of being an inconvenience to others, I'm a curiosity. Cause self-service machines in the stores are usually in that void of your memory if you're asked to describe the inside of a store, you see it and know it. But it doesn't register in your mind what it is. Now I'm just rambling

Had my biggest winners out of a machine but I also prefer to buy from a cashier. People chase tickets and just scan the bar codes from the machines. Look in the trash next to the machine. If you see 8 of the same $30 ticket stay away from that one. Someone chased until they won.

Watching from New Jersey. I prefer buying from the counter. Thanks for showing us how you play & win!

Good Afternoon Matt and Mrs Fixin 🙋🏽🍀🤞👍🏽.

I like the road trip in the beginning. Nice session

My biggest thing with buying from a vending machine is not knowing what number the ticket is on. Especially if you are playing from the same pack that you did previously, etc. I wish they would allow you to view the ticket number and pack number before buying a ticket.

My family likes to make raffles out of lottery tickets. Several different kinds and blocks, lol sometimes buy several different types of scratch offs and throw them in a big mason jar and someone has to bid on that jar. Another one is making a bull’s-eye wheel out of different types of lottery tickets. And same thing, someone bids on that lottery ticket wheel, highest bidder wins it! Always our top seller! We do this for Jack and Jill parties fundraisers etc.

I’ve bought 4 scratch offs from Walmart vending machines and won $50, $20, and $10. Better luck than at a gas station.

The vending machines here in Michigan don’t work most of the time so it’s over the counter for me now.

For some reason I do better pit the machine here in VA instead of the counter great wins there Matt!!

Good morning. I like over the counter. But I had a claimer on the HEB vending machine. 2 claimers on over the counter. It's just being at the right place at the right time.

Just scan the card to see if it’s a winner. Scratching it off is boring!! I love just buying $1000 worth of the $50 cards. Scanning it immediately. Hawaii doesn’t have these so when I visit my brother in Washington state, I go crazy on these cards. I usually make a couple of hundred dollars over what I invest. I love it it’s fun. I’ve had good luck at the Walmart in the battle ground community in Washington.

The Walmart machine is really neat, I've never seen one like that before! I prefer to do over the counter but mainly because I don't come across vending machines too often in my travels.

Fun session...I like the fact that the vending machine tells you how many tickets are left in the machine...congratulations on your wins

Good afternoon Fixin Family.....what a session! Good for over the counter win! I was like something has to come through! Have a blessed day, see you tomorrow. 👶🐓🐇🐈🐈🐢🦎🍀🍀🍀🇺🇦

It’s difficult to tell from just that one time comparison, would need to see it a few times

I go to my state’s lotto page and I study scratch offs. How many prizes are left in a game and if the grand prize is still there. It helps a little. I did that the other day and won 100. But I always subtract the money I used from the losers. So after my winning- I made 70 instead of 100. I tend to win more in the vending machines

I really like how the machines at Walmart show how many tickets are left. I’ve gotten quite a few winners using that feature.

Good afternoon Mr Fixing and Marmie! I'm hoping to hear Marmie cheering you on for some Big Winners 🙂! Good luck 🤞🍀🍀🤞 on today's session 🙂! Let's hope that you have good luck 🤠 with both challenges!

There was 2 machines at my local Walmart and for awhile there's 1 so I've played OTC and overall my luck has been better with OTC tickets for sure

That’s a great session Mr.Fixin!!

Your best bet is to buy a bunch of tickets from one row....like all Trucks and Bucks and so on.

Thanks Fixing Family For This Informative Video, I Prefer Over The Counters Tickets. Good Lucks To You All.

The machines give me anxiety because I feel it will take my money without giving me the ticket😲but I win more often because they constantly refill it with new tickets. I live close to a high volume Walmart and shell so I have some choices. I don't play like I used to. I moved from a city where they had real deal lottery stores , lines around the corner 🤣

I really don't think it matters you just have to be at the right place at the right time I usually have better luck playing the slot machine.

I used to make lottery tickets with a company called SGI. The state lottery knows exactly where the winning tickets are in the packs and releases the winning tickets over time. On a 58 million ticket order per 6 months only 3 pages of winning tickets were produced. I know this because of the pluck we would have to do to remove the duplicate winning tickets for each state/country.

we have the machines at Walmart in Georgia and I neve see anyone at them. but we have the machines in gas stations and grocery stores too and I always see people at those.

I also wanted to add ….look at the bar codes on the back of any scratch off lotto tickets…winner tickets always have a different pattern than loser tickets…

I buy from both..it depends how i feel that day!

Love when you take us on a tour of where you live it's beautiful

I don't buy scratch offs. I just buy one or two of the regular lottery tickets. You have more of a chance of hitting the lottery tickets, than scratch offs. Plus, they can be for many of millions. If you win.

Thank you guys for sharing...

Good Session good luck on the next session 👍

In California the bigger wins for me have been over the counter.

Here in the UK we actually don't have machines to get our scratch cards from so we have to get ours from inside the shop unfortunately 😐

I would always think machine would be best payout because some clerks play behind people and steal wins and tamper and it’s hard to do that via machine so I’d think it depends on the store clerk workers or the Lottery workers. I think they’re more likely to put big win in machines than in the hands of clerks. ❤️🍀

I purchased a $5.00 scratcher from the vending machine but it was attached to 2 of the same tickets. It dispensed 3 instead of one. I purchase from the counter and vending machine weekly. Do you have any idea why it would dispense 3, especially since the vending machine never dispenses tickets that are attached together? I was thinking these were the last ones and they weren't attached to any apparatus inside the machine. Unfortunately, not one was a winner but i am still curious. What do you think? Thanks

Just subscribed last week. Love this.😁

Morning boss hope you hit a claimer soon!!!!

I live in Quebec, Canada, there are no vending machines here, I've only seen one in a bar but it was closed

That's a nice machine. we got the old ones in Cali

I love scratch offs . I like counter so I can see what # ticket it’s on. If it’s loaded forward or backwards.

I do over the counter, last week I hit for $500 on a 5 Dollar scratch off and 7 years ago I hit for $20,000 on a 2 Dollar scratch! So you never know when you will hit but you can't win unless you play !

Where I live they only sell over the counter. It's about 100 miles to the nearest vending machine.

omg i didnt know walmart had these in texas! I go there every week, need to start playing powerball every week

I've had most of my success from vending machine and occasionally from inside gas station. It just depends on day and if I'm feeling it.

I bought 2 tickets in AZ over the weekend. I went to a gas station and they barely had any behind the counter but they had one of those machines. You could even play Powerball and Megamillions on it. I got a $10 ticket behind the counter and lost. I got a $2 ticket from the machine and won $5.

I just bought 2 full books from vending machines. 1 20 book and the other 30 dollar book. The biggest winner of both was 50 bucks. I'm like wtf. Went back got 10 tickets 20$ tickets Otc and hit a 200. So I'm starting to hate vending machines. Unless I just got really unlucky for both books.

I work at a Walmart in New York those machines actually make more money then you think. It usually it used more later in the day then the morning.

My 4 claimers were all from machines, but it's mostly an even split for me.

It's a coin toss either way, I've won pretty decent on both so good luck to whoever buys some tickets today!!

Thanks for this video. I asked this question just yesterday. Next time I will look in your library first lol. LOVE your videos. hi Bunbuns, hi Marmey. Howdy from Oklahoma Mrs Fixen.

All my big wins tickets have came out of the vending machine.. My 2,000$ dollar win came out of the Walmart type vending machine.. I like when it shows the tickets that about to run out..

I ALWAYS WANTED TO KNOW WHERE TO BUY THEM AND U R HELPING FIND OUT TY. iMIN WASHINGTON ST.

Biggest I got on a scratch off was 100 bucks. I bought 20 of a two dollar ticket that I liked. It's called hunting for bucks. The art on it was camouflage, and it had deer. The top prize was the 100 dollar binoculars symbol, too cool.

In the last 7 years, my best 5 Ohio wins were from vending machines.

Always up for a challenge. Not me personally but I will watch😂😂🍀🍀

Hello from Florida! I definitely prefer to buy from the machines because it's easier if I decide to chase. Good luck all

it’s nice to see I’m not the only one. 😌😌😌I switch between machine and counter. I had zero luck for months at my counter and vending machine was great Also nice to see these videos are popular.

Sweet session Matt it was Kool ta see you buy ur tickets! I like behind the counter so I can see what part of the book the tickets on! Sometimes I may buy from a machine, but I like to know what the numbers are before I buy 😅

I’ve won more from a brand new bp gas station than any other gas or drive thrus. I’ve won a couple smalls from vending machines. I prefer to go look at the tickets in person. Sometimes I get a vibe on a certain ticket and win on that. Just wish I would vibe on the super big pays!!! 🤣

I like getting them from both places

You did the shell station tickets first then vending tickets from walmart
