Since we want everyone to have a chance to enter our drawings, we'd like to call your attention to a few upcoming entry deadlines.

First up is the MONOPOLY MILLIONAIRES' CLUB game show drawing, which you can enter through the end of the day on Tuesday, Jan. 6. Drawing winners receive a 5 day/4 night trip to Las Vegas including airfare, hotel accommodations, ground transportation, meals, spending money and a chance to be selected as a contestant on the game show. The drawing will occur on Tuesday, Jan. 13.

Next is the first of this month's Lucke-Rewards $2,500 Winning Wednesday drawings, which has an entry deadline of Sunday, Jan. 11. One player will win a $2,500 prize in the Wednesday, Jan. 14 drawing.

Finally, the deadline to enter your MONOPOLY MILLIONAIRES' CLUB tickets into the MONOPOLY MILLIONAIRES' CLUB BONUS DRAWING is Sunday, Jan. 18. The drawing, which will be held on Wednesday, Jan. 21, will award two $50,000 prizes, 10 $10,000 prizes and 15 $1,000 prizes.

We'll list the winners as soon as they come in to claim their prize.

Be sure to keep an eye on the Lucke Zone for more exciting drawings. Best of luck to everyone!

Why don't you offer more games games to play with your reward. Why don't you have all the games be able to buy onlineNC Lottery
The Lottery Commission members that oversee the lottery's operations only approved the specific sale of Cash 5, Mega Millions and Powerball via web-based subscription. It is possible in the future that more games will be available.

General question... In any roll of scratch off tickets what is the percentage of winning tickets in the roll? A friend bought $100 of $1 scratch offs all were consecutive numbers, he might have won a total of $5. NC Lottery
There's no real "average" number of winning ticket in a roll. It's important to remember that the odds of winning a prize aren't per pack, but for the entire run of the game. But the winning tickets are out there! Best of luck!

Well,I wonder How the winners be notify?Via email?or by mail? NC Lottery
We will notify using the contact info that players entered in their LZ accounts. So it's a good idea to make sure your info is always up to date. We'd hate for anyone to miss out on a prize!

1/10/2015 09:04 - James C.

Has anyone ever won with fewer than 25 entries? NC Lottery
Sure! You only need one lucky entry to win!

1/09/2015 08:53 - PRAVIN V.

Hello, NC LOTTERY LUCE E ZONE WHERE IS DRAW RESUTS?FOR DECEMBER CASH 2,500 NC Lottery
The winners have been notified, but we can't post names until they come in to claim their prize.

SUBMITTED A COMMENT ON 1/7...SAD IT DIDN'T SHOW UP NC Lottery
Sure it did! It's up there somewhere, just hit ctrlF and type in your screen name. And happy new year to you, too!:-)

I'm waiting and watching I've been playing and entering tickets along time,I pray 2015 is my time to win, haven't seen many wins in Charlotte for any drawings,Good luck to every one ??

After you enter the entry code into Lucke Zone, can you then pitch the ticket, or must you keep it in case you win a drawing?NC Lottery
You don't need to keep the physical ticket :)

1/08/2015 01:30 - Ellainez H.

Hey what is goin on for the drawing for the month of dec.

1/08/2015 10:44 - Kelly K.

how long do you have to wait before winning again?NC Lottery
You don't have to wait at all. The rules state that a Lucke-Zone member may only win once PER Lucke-Rewards or game-specific second-chance drawing. But there is NO LIMIT on how many drawings you can enter for a chance to win :)

1/08/2015 09:10 - Denver G.

With the subscription service you get an email saying your number has expired because the computer automatically picks your next draw right after that night's draw. Whether it be MM, PB or cash5, you get every draw you pay for.

1/08/2015 07:58 - Richard M.

Thank You

1/08/2015 04:36 - Mary W.

NC LOTTERY.. You do make playing fun....I have entered and have not won...but so what..I still enter and hope to win....There is one thing for sure...If you do Not enter..You Will Not Win..

1/08/2015 12:00 - SHANNAN B.

What is the deal with the subscription service? I made a purchase on 12/30. I bought PB and MM tickets for 4 draws each. The last draw for the MM should be this Friday, 1/9. The last draw for the PB should be Sat., 1/10. I just received an email saying my subscription has expired. I checked my account and that 12/30 purchase has been REMOVED from my purchase history. Guess I won't be buying anymore tickets via the subscription service. NC Lottery
We're sorry you had a bad experience. Did you contact customer service. They should be able to help you or give you an explanation. Call toll-free 1 855-767-1863.

How do I enter the 2nd chance Monopoly drawing on January 21.NC Lottery
If you played the game one or more times between Oct. 19 and Dec. 26, and submitted the Lucke-Rewards code for at least one MMC ticket, you are already entered in the drawing. For those that have MMC tickets that have yet to be submitted, make sure to submit them before midnight on Sunday, Jan. 18. The more total tickets you have submitted before the deadline, the more chances you have to win.

1/07/2015 10:16 - Mirranda B.

The email I have on my account can no longer be in use, how will I be notified?NC Lottery
Number one, click on your profile at the top of the Lucke-Zone and update your e-mail address! Number two, if we don't hear back from a winner we notify by e-mail, we try by telephone and certified mail if necessary. Good luck!

1/07/2015 08:04 - Robin W.

Have the names for the $800 Wednesday game been drawn yet today? For 1/7/2015NC Lottery
Yes. Winners are typically notified within 48 hours of the drawing, so close of business today (Friday). Good luck!

This will be the third time I have this question. I had a lucky 8s ticket. It showed 3_ 8 In a row. Pay was 4 dollars. The lady said that I won $20 dollars. Was that correct? ThanksNC Lottery
Please call our player customer service at 877-962-7529. Chances are we responded to your question on the previous blogs where you posted it. We recommend changing your screen name from "PLAYER" to something else so that you can find your question and our response more easily.

I like to play in the lucky zone, I can hope one day to win.I know there are a lot of poeple playing.

1/07/2015 07:01 - PAULA K.

Happy New Year to everyone!! Hopefully this year will bring good health & good luck to everyone :) I can't wait to see my e-mail after the drawing dates. Would love to pay off some bills & spread the wealth with family and friends!! Thank you for the second chances

1/07/2015 06:06 - Richard B.

If you want just to have fun playing numbers, then do not expect to win. It'll feel a hold lot better when you do.

1/07/2015 04:46 - Denver G.

Just my 2cents. All along the winners page stated that the drawing for the winning Wednesday 8 for $800 was on 12/24. Now it says it was on 12/23.I personally find that strange indeed! NC Lottery
Good morning, Turbo. Wednesday, Dec. 24 was Christmas Eve and the lottery was closed. So we held the drawing on Tuesday, Dec. 23. We change the date to correctly reflect when the drawing was held. The entry deadline for that drawing was Sunday, Dec. 21.

made in responce to grandmoms comments, with my situation, its not really fun, retired with two tempory jobs, its another way to posibly break even at some point with mortage and bills.

1/07/2015 02:20 - Margaret H.

Once I enter my "losing tickets" on LuckE and enter a drawing, do I still need to keep the physical tickets in case I win? Thanks.NC Lottery
No, you do not need to keep the physical ticket once it's been entered here in the Lucke-Zone :)

1/07/2015 02:05 - NC Lottery

@GRANDMOM - An entry made in Lil' Washington is just as good as an entry made anyplace else. But there are half a million Lucke-Zone users who make hundreds of thousands of entries in some drawings. So, you will always have a chance to win but never a guarantee. Winners are notified via e-mail and, if necessary, telephone and certified mail. We only want folks to play/enter as long as they're enjoying themselves - and that includes you! So please play only if you're having fun. And good luck :)

1/07/2015 11:28 - Robin H.

When are they going to post the winners from the $800 Wednesday drawings that have passed???NC Lottery
As with all drawings, we can only announce a winner's name after he or she responds to notification AND completes the claim process, which can take days or weeks. We'll share it as soon as we can!!!

1/07/2015 09:40 - shannon r.

if you win one of the monopoly trips to Vegas,does a guest get to come with you?NC Lottery
Yup ;-)

1/07/2015 09:27 - Robert G.

Can't wait until I get an email that I'm a winner!!! Fingers and toes are crossed!

1/07/2015 09:21 - alton r.

I hope 2015 is my Lucky Year, Happy New Year to you all.

1/07/2015 09:08 - stephen r.

why can't i see my monopoly board game? also, when is the drawing for this Vegas trip?NC Lottery
The deadline to enter for the Vegas trip was Tuesday, Jan. 6. Access to the MONOPOLY boards ended as the deadline for entries passed. The drawing will be held on Tuesday, Jan. 13. Good luck.

I keyed in numerous tickets in the last drawing and noticed that I did not win anything. Keying in these tickets is very time consuming and even harder on your eyes(especially if you have old eye) I paged through the last year winners and noticed 2 things: #1. No one won anything in Washington, NC(am I the only one in my town keying these numbers in?) #2. How long does it take to be a winner in the Lucky Reward Drawings if you live in a small town like mine? Is the drawing random? I ask that because no one ever won the Lucky Reward Drawing on this town. #3. My family and friends told me that entering these "Lucky Reward Drawings" is a huge waste of my time, because the odds of me winning is 1 million to 1, because of the population in my county makes it almost impossible. How are the winners notified? because in all the years I have been doing this I have never been notified. Just wondering if I should continue or give up.

1/07/2015 07:51 - MR. Kenneth R.

I,m going keep my finger crosss I feel like I have a chance to win along with my other players club friends.........

1/06/2015 11:40 - Gale S.

Please put more money on the scratch off tickets.

1/06/2015 08:30 - perry w.

1/06/2015 07:38 - karen k.

Cannot wait for the drawings, I'm in all the. I would still love to know all scratch game ticket numbers for all the winners. So once and for all I'd know if they are random, out ask at the end/beginning of the pack, etc. Thank you!

1/06/2015 06:28 - paul b.

Hope i can 1 of those prizes Going luck to ME.LOL

1/06/2015 06:27 - clarence l.

I purchased 5 Break The Bank tickets with all consecutive numbers, not a winning one, what gives??NC Lottery
There is never a guarantee of winning a prize on a lottery ticket. Winning and non-winning tickets are distributed throughout the entire printing run of the game. Hope you have better luck on your next ticket!
