I don't think I've ever bought a scratch off ticket to be honest. As far as lottery tickets go, I know I've only spent $10 or less on them my whole life.

Every time it gets up to having a huge jackpot I consider buying one since the chances of winning are about the same regardless. I might have to get one once a month or something. It's only $5 or less for one with all the multipliers I think and I don't really have any other vices anymore haha.
