Could be anything from raffles to product giveaways to lotteries...

2. I play the state lottery in a pool at work.
I've been playing for years, but the most we ever won was about $2000 (split 13 ways).

3. I play powerball and other various lottery games.
In a half hour I'll be $190 million richer.

4. enter various contests if the mood hits and the prize appeals
somebody has got to win it.

Couple years ago taking my kid to a hockey tournement he was playing in.
His hockey bag died just before we left and he ended up taking his gear in a suitcase--much to all his teams amusement. Raffle at tourney--I won the kid a new hockey bag..
worked out rather well

5. I buy lottery tickets from time to time and then never check whether
they're winners. Mentally spending the prize money for weeks is the cheapest entertainment I know of.
