I know...I always buy "Set For Life" the biggest prize is $1,000 a week for 25 years. but i only ever win $4.00...and that's how much the tickets cost!
I won a 100.00 gift card at work for the local mall, and a cingular neck strap to hang my name tag, but i just keep my nametag in my wallet.
My brother once won tickets to an MC Hammer concert from a local radio station.
that's about all the stuff i've ever won.

set for life is a scratch and win game where the top prize is $1,000 a week for 25 years...hence, you'd pretty much be set for life! the tickets cost 4.00 i'm assuming they have scratch and win lotto in germany.

Yeah, we've got them... 0,50-1,00 Euro a ticket. 3 fields for scratching.
But it's over a year ago I bought the last ticket.
If I remember correctly, the highest win with a 0,50 ticket is 10.000 Euro.
The highest I got were 20 Euro... which I directly invested in new tickets, but didn't win anything
Let's thing what I won in contests:
- a playstation game (about 8 years ago)
- two tickets for a Tom Jones concert (3 years ago)
- several other tickets for small events here in Berlin (a local radio station has a online-community... as member just mark the stuff you want win and wait)
- two tickets for the Formula 1 race at the Nürburgring (including hotel and transfer hotel <-> Nürburgring), only had to pay the journey for myself... that was my biggest win so far, worth about 1.000 Euro (the two tickets for the race alone were 380 Euro each)... this I won by writing an email to the FHM magazine... I was informed I won a day before I had to drive there...
- two ticket for the semi finals of the German Open (women tennis)
- two ticket for the German premier of "Herbie Fully Loaded"... open air, and Manfred Manns’ Earth Band as musical guest (which was the best part of the evening... except for drinks )
- the Season 1&2 of "Seinfeld" on DVD
- the book "R.E.M. - Inside Out"
And hopefully more to come...
I was close of becoming a candidate of the german "Who wants to be a millionaire?". At least they called me back, but unfortunately didn't invite me... I'm sure I wouldn't leave with less than 16.000 Euro (highest save point).
There is a sort of lottery here were you can win either 5.000 Euro a month for 25 years or 1.000.000 Euro at once.
My mother plays lottery, we've got two draws each weak (wednesdays and saturdays), you've got to pick 6 out of 49 numbers, winning starts at 3 correct numbers (for which your normally win 5-12 Euro).

in most states now the 1,000 week ticket is like for 1 year the texas 1 is for 1 year the ones in missouri where i live now are only like for 1 year there is an illinois lottery 1,000 week one for 20 or 25 years. that would be sweet make something like 50,000+ something a year... I would still work and make like 52,000 a year (LOL) a friend of mine was at a store and the guy after him won the 1,000 week prize.
