  I don't pay scratch off mainly because I never win, and secondly there seems to be a lot of theft of winnings on scratch off tickets from the store clerks.

  They used to steal here by putting a scratch across the code on the ticket.  Some of them had figured out which letters/numbers had to be there for a winner, and they could put the scratch in the right spot to see what it was.

  I actually bought a couple of those.  I feel like such a dork now that I know they were in effect pre-scratched.

  Have you noticed that "THANK YOU FOR PLAYING" is not on any of the tickets? ( In NC anyway) Anyhow, I stick to P3 and C5 !!!
