We don't have it in Pa. either.
My daughter called from N.C. to see if we could get tickets. They don't have it either. Would love to see she and her husband win something. They have student loans to pay off, with his law school loans being the biggest.
If my recall is right, there are 13 states that don't participate.
My husband had to be in W. Va. yesterday and stopped for some tickets. He was only reminded of it when he kept seeing long lines at various stores.
For us, it's just a trip down the Interstate, through a section of Maryland.

I was going to try to get my own numbers. But, in this case I think I'll just hang on to your shirt tails Femme and save myself the ten bucks!

We dont' play very often, but I have our numbers for tonight... err rather hubby got them. I am always the one to get the tickets and I never ever win anything - hubby wins things by breathing on them... so he got them this time.

We were on vacation in PA, and as tradition holds, we had to come thru CT to catch the ferry for home....I was SHOCKED to see NO ONE on the line at one of gas stations along the route, so I popped in and picked up $10 worth of tickets...Didn't win a darn thing (at least last time I won a whopping $7 outta the 300Mil+ jackpot!)...BUT we had a wonderful wonderful time driving to the ferry and fantasizing about how we (DH & my 3 boys) would spend the money if we were the big winners. We laughed and laughed about all the things we would do, the places we would go, and the things we would get...Worth every bit of my $10 just for the "adventure".....Of course this morning, I had to break it to them that we didn't win, but explained that we could still WORK to get all those wonderful things we wanted!.....Not quite as exciting, but a lesson learned never the less....
