Do you enjoy buying scratch off lottery tickets?
If yes….How often do you buy them?
Have you ever one BIG?
(multiple choice)


For Me…..I buy five $1 tickets every Thursday (I started this in January this year)
Whatever I win, I put towards the next weeks ticket purchase.
I’ve never won BIG, the most I’ve won is $6, and that was last week. Yesterday I put all $6 towards six tickets and won nothing. Oh well….it is what it is. Next week I’ll buy five again and see what happens.

The most I have won is $25 🤣🤣🤣DD won $100 - not big winners here ! Don’t buy often just random
 
I haven't bought them in many, many years.
Not really interested. I would just rather spend the money I have on something I want
 

I don't buy lottery tickets because the odds are really bad. ;) But I had received some scratch off tickets for Christmas and won $2.00. The ticket agent was shocked when I told him I wanted my winnings in cash instead of turning the ticket in for more scratch off tickets. :)
 
No scratch offs for me. I think Marie does once in a while. I have the lottery app on my phone. I'll purchase maybe $8-10 over a month. I've won a few times, a few dollars. I think the most, maybe $25.

Have a great weekend, Sandy, thanks for another good week of creative, interactive polls.
 
I’ve been buying them once a year for stocking stuffers. In December both kids had a combined $26 in winnings. That was big for us. Dh buys a scratch off maybe once a month. He hardly ever wins. I’m gonna say maybe 25 years ago he won a few hundred but that’s never happened again.
 
I have bought them as a gift and have received them as gifts. Never really won much money, $10 maybe.
 
I don’t remember ever buying one for myself but I have received them as a gift, and given them as gifts to other people. The largest prize I’ve won is $2.00, but it’s likely that I never turned it in to collect. :o
 
I buy scratch tickets for myself and for gifts. Not often, but maybe 6 times a year - some for myself, others as gifts. (They are always included in birthday gifts for certain people that I know love scratch tickets!)

The largest amount I won was $400 on a $5 scratch ticket. That was eons ago. The most I won in the last few years was $20.
 
I don’t really buy them for myself. Usually they are part of a gift to others. I remember someone winning $100 one time, but the more usual outcome is $0-$2.

Someone I worked with gave one to their mother-in-law one Christmas and it turned out to be a $50,000 winner.
 
We'll buy them here and there - probably no more often than once a month or so. Never really won anything of any significance.
 
We buy them a lot - we always seem to break even, which I am cool with. I have won $100 a few times. We were just talking yesterday about a friend who won $13K or so recently. That would be excellent, ha!
 
I used to buy them quite frequently, at least $20 a few times a month. I never won a large sum of money, it was more just for the fun of it. I’d also buy sports betting tickets and won $80-$100 a few times.
 
I get them as stocking stuffers for Christmas, sometimes white elephant gifts. Not usually throughout the year. Never won more than a few dollars.
 
I won $1k once in all the years since I've been of legal age to buy them so not a big winner by any means. I've one a few bucks here and there. My in-laws tend to get them for us as gifts for birthdays/xmas etc.
 
I rarely buy them. Almost always as stocking stuffers and not for myself. Interestingly, my specific grocery store sold a $5 scratch off ticket worth $50,000. I didn't know the winner but the store manager said the store gets a 5% bonus for winning tickets.

I would be excited to win $100; I cannot imagine winning $50K - that would be pretty shocking!
 
My hubby buys me one about once a year when we are driving somewhere just to give me something to do.
