  My son got 4 $5 scratchers and I won $15. Felt fortunate to win that!

  I don't play scratchers too often. Don't seem to win all that much. Then again, I don't win much on the other games either. LOL

  CAN'T WIN IF YOU'RE NOT IN

  I usually try to get some scratcher for my hubby stocking when we go to Texas, but I didn't make it down before the holidays this year.

  Well, I'm glad you didn't sign your name on the back of them anyway.

  There was some cheapskate here last year who said he always signs the back of tickets he gives away just in case they win something big.

  i had planned to give some scratchers this year, but i was going to  scuff of the part where the bar code is so you can check if its a winner , and check thy are all winners i give out.  here you can leave the whole game part  still covered in latex, and they get te joy of playing the game, but i know everyone i give em to  will be a winner. but when i bough then i needed to  buy 7 tickets to get 1 winner, and i never kept buying till i had the 6 winners needed.  but maybe next year.

   

  the scanner here dont tell me what the prize, but just to  "see the cashier. "

  but i dint plan on giving them out to just anyone. just my dear closest friends and family.

  keno historic = -2291 ; 2015= -603; 2016= -424; 2017 =-427; 2018= -223   TOT = -3968

  I think about that too.  I would never give someone a ticket that I'd be mad or jealous if they won the grand prize.  So no draw games for sure.  The $1 and $2 scratchers usually have grand prizes of $5000 or less, so I can give those without too much regret.
