Biggest Lottery Jackpot And Mothers Day Gift Ideas

Before I tell you about the biggest lottery jackpot around I want to remind everybody that mothers day is just around the corner and now is the time to start thinking about what to buy the person who helped to bring you into the world. To help you I’m going to introduce you to a site that will help you to choose the best mothers day gift. Actually, The Gifts Guru is a pretty new site and I’m sure that with time a lot of people will make it a regular stop when trying to work out what gifts to buy someone on those special occasions. Just remember, you don’t have to win the biggest lottery jackpot in the world to buy your mum the gift she deserves. Speaking of lotteries, I think it’s time we had a look at which lotteries are worth getting into because of the prize value.

Biggest Lottery Jackpot Australia?

The biggest lottery Jackpot in Australia would have to be The Australian Powerball Lottery which failed to go off last week. This weeks jackpot is worth $60 million! One would think Oz Lotteries would be your best bet for buying an Aussie Powerball online but for some reasons if your living in Queensland you’re not able to. Then there’s also those poor Americans who are excluded but not to worry because if that’s the case your best bet would be theLotter.com who are running a great special on Aussie lotteries for the month of April.

Biggest Lottery Jackpot USA?

The Americans are well known for their huge lottery jackpot and discounting their powerball which goes off in the next few ours, their biggest lottery jackpot is Megamillions which is worth a huge $114 million! theLotter.com is the one I recommend for this lottery, that is of course unless you want to use your PayPal to pay for your lottery ticket. If that’s the case then your best option is Lottobroker.com. Something else you may want to try at Lottobroker.com would be their Jackpot hunter which is worth $306 million US! It actually looks kind of interesting, so interesting in fact that I think it deserves a post all on it’s own.

That’s if for now. Don’t forget, you have to be in it to win it and getting your hands on the biggest jackpot is well worth spending a few bucks.

Why It Costs More To Buy Lottery Tickets Online

Why It Costs More To Buy Lottery Tickets Online

People are always asking why it costs more to buy lottery tickets online? The answer is really quite simple. You’re basically paying for someone to physically go out and buy the lottery ticket for you. If you went to a ‘live’ lottery agent you would pay more than if you went the actual lottery office because the agent gets a commission for selling you the lottery tickets. When you get your tickets online they have people who go out to purchase the ticket who have to be compensated for their time. The agent themselves also have to make something and so they add a small fee to the purchase. When you think about it you would expect to pay a lot more but they’re able to keep their fees down because of the amount of tickets their able to sell. I’ve always expected to pay more for a lottery ticket online but that doesn’t mean that I don’t take advantage of special deals when they are on offer. That’s one of the reasons why I join so many lotter agents. You can see them listed over there on the right under the ‘Best Lotto Sites‘ heading. It’s the same reason why most people like to shop around so they can get the best price. Being a member of all these lottery sites means I get notified when they’re offering special deals.

I did compare them to OZ Lotteries and I can say theLotter.com is a lot cheaper.

Results For $100 Million Oz Lotto Draw 977

Leave your comment

As it turns out last nights OZ Lotto turned out to be a record beating the one set in 2009 which surged from a guaranteed jackpot of $90 million to over $106 million. Last nights jackpot went from a guaranteed $100 million to almost $112 million. Now that is what I call a sweet prize pool. Well, the results are in and four Aussies are going to share in it winning a cool $27.9 million each. Unfortunately no-one in South Australia, my home state, was lucky enough to win it as the lucky states for this weeks draw turned out to be Victoria, NSW and Queensland.

So many people went online last night trying to check their numbers and to see whether or not someone had actually won the lottery that websites were crashing all over the place. I wasn’t one of them as I was working last night and because of that I even missed out on the draw. Knowing that I wasn’t the only one in that situation I’ve decided to do something a little different for this post by embedding a video of the actual Oz Lotto draw.

Oz Lotto Draw 977 November 6, 2012

OK, so we know the winning numbers and now we need to know what the dividends were so we know how much we won.

I haven’t received an email from OZ Lotteries yet but that’s understandable considering the amount of people who have bought tickets in it. I could go online and check the numbers myself but that would ruin the suspense. At least I know that if I actually did win something I know that my winnings are secure. Not like those poor bastards who have bought and mislaid their tickets. I reckon they will be tearing out their hair about now.

One of the many advantages of buying your lottery tickets online is being secure in the knowledge that you never have to worry about losing your tickets again. Another one is that you don’t have to worry about having to join those endless long queues to buy a ticket when they jackpot to something like last nights Oz Lotto.

All that aside, I reckon the biggest advantage about getting your lottery ticket online is that it opens up a whole new world to you. No longer are you constrained to buying tickets in the place of your birth. Going online allows you to buy lottery tickets from anywhere in the world. Whether it’s America’s US PowerBall or Europe’s EuroMillions you now have access to it and this site supplies you all the information needed to do so. These include, theLotter.com, PLAYHUGELOTTOS.COM, Lottobroker.com, LottoZone and Wintrillions. Which of those will be your lucky meal ticket to a life of luxury?

Well, if you’ve found this page then you’ve learned something that those who have subscribed to my List have known for ages, that sites exist who will allow you to buy your lottery tickets online. I’ve listed those sites in my introductory post called, funnily enough, Welcome To Buy Online Lottery Tickets!

In my last post I mentioned how theLotter.com had offered a discount on the $70 million Oz Lotto game and how if we were lucky they might do the same thing again. Well, they have only this time they’re offering a huge 40% discount on one-time entries in Tuesday’s Oz Lotto. You have to admit that is a pretty sweet deal by anyones standard.

Winning Oz Lottos $100 Million Jackpot

Leave your comment

Hey guys, how did you go with last nights Oz Lotto draws? I know you didn’t win it because the jackpot is now $100 million dollars. Hopefully you managed to snag one of the dividends though. I got my email from Oz Lotteries which told me that I didn’t win anything and after checking it online I found that the closest I got was 2 numbers. Shit, I couldn’t even get six numbers out of the 14 games I played, the closest I got was 5 numbers and the two sups. Too bad you can’t use the whole ticket because looking at the dividends below I would have won two division 4′s which would have netted me a little over $700. Not much but better than nothing right?

Oz Lotto Dividends Draw No 976

Still, it’s good to know that no-one else has won it because that means we’ve still got another shot at winning the big bucks. For that sort of money you want to use whatever means possible to increase your luck. That could include playing your lucky numbers, finding that four leaf clover or digging out that lucky horse shoe. You can always give this one a rub.

Did you know that they have dubbed this lottery draw the ”jackpot that stops a nation”? That’s because it falls on Melbourne Cup day which is usually known as the “race that stops the nation” because no matter where you are on that day people usually stop, if there is a TV or radio handy, to watch or listen to the race.

Here are some interesting lottery facts that I read in the Courier Mail.

According to Ms Lewis the seven numbers that have been drawn multiple times in big draws are 6, 11, 23, 29, 34, 40 and 42. They have each been drawn twice across the four biggest Oz Lotto draws, which offered division one prizes ranging from $40 million to the record $90 million draw in 2009.

Lotto facts

60 per cent of all lotto entries are either Quick or Auto picks.

The most frequently drawn Oz Lotto number is 27 (drawn 83 times since 2005).

The most infrequent Oz Lotto number is 30 (drawn 52 times since 2005).

I though you might like those interesting facts as it might give you some ideas as to which numbers to choose for this weeks draw.

Of course, if you’re an Aussie you will want to use Oz Lotteries to get your lottery ticket online because they offer the best deal. I don’t know why but for some reasons anyone living in Queensland can’t use Oz Lotteries to buy their tickets online. I know in the last post I mentioned that theLotter.com was offering a discount, perhaps that’s still on. Then again if you want to buy your lottery ticket using PayPal there’s always Lottobroker.com or Wintrillions. It doesn’t matter which one you use as long as you remember that when it comes to winning the lottery you have to be in it to win it.
