Heh, heh. Same here. I call it a "stupid tax".
Unfortunately, I did say it in front of a friend I later found buys tickets all the time.
AND NO SMART REMARKS ABOUT THE QUALITY OF MY FRIENDS!!!
One fateful day while in a 7-ll feeling very down and depressed (three small kids, hubby out of work and Christmas is coming, plus living with a nut of a sister-in-law) I spent 5 bucks on a ticket for the first time in my life. I got 5 out of 6 numbers and won 486.00. One number away from 2 mil. What are the chances of that?
BTW, I never bought another ticket since! :P
