I am surprised that someone didn't suggest that they make the price of the ticket 40.00 instead of 30.00. It is the 40 year anniversary and most of the prizes seem to be 40,000.00 or 40.00. The design of the ticket is a little crude looking but that is not really important. I just would have gone with the 40.00. Seeing that 30.00 at the top and bottom just doesn't fit.

I don't know much about scratch cards.

I however would be hesitant to spend $30 for a top prize of $40K.

I see people here complain about $30 scratchers with a $3M top prize.

I however think the idea is to celebrate the 40 years and not necessarily win a life changing amount

Good luck to all who play
