Which type of holiday gifter are you?

November 9, 2015 Posted by NC Lottery at 9:10 AM

We've added some extra fun to our traditional set of holiday scratch-offs this season with a quiz for you to find out about your gifting self.

Are you a: Trendy Gifter? A D.I.Y Gifter? A Last Minute Gifter? You can find the Gifter Quiz here. Take it as many times as you like and share it with friends and family.

We have five holiday-themed scratchers this year. They include a $10 Holiday Gold ticket with a chance to win up to $1 million; a $5 Merry Mega Bucks ticket with a top prize of $100,000; a $3 Peppermint Payout ticket with a top prize of $50,000; a $2 Bah Humbucks ticket with a top prizes of $20,000; and a $1 Sleigh Bills ticket with a top prizes of $5,000.

In all, the five games have more than $35 million in prizes to be won between now and the end of the holiday games.

Here’s to wrapping up and scratching off something special!

Something is wrong with the Lucke Zone entry ticket. I put in my entry and it kept saying the number is not recognize. It lock me out. I waited for 24 hours, I tried to enter the ticket again. I'm still locked out. That's not fair I'm putting the entry what's on the ticket but it won't enter. I can't enter my tickets, because it says I made to many mistakes. I kept trying to enter my entry. What am I to do?NC Lottery

If most people play sparingly, there wouldn't be a lottery. Better odds on the roles of scratch offs. Thx.

I heard about the scam in the Illinois lottery! Who is the monitoring the lotteries and claim it is conducted fairly? Especially for powerball and megamillions! I hope NC lottery is monitored securedly! The price of powerball need to be $1 and $2 for powerplay option. THX!!!!!!!!!!!!!NC Lottery

NC, PLEASE do something about the odds on a roll of tickets! I know its luck to win but you have to make it more realistic in payback to players especially the ones who play religiously! If the odds are 1 in 5 for instant, then print the tickets that way; it will still take luck to hit the big one but people will be a bit more satisfied! I am sure you are reading the comments; too many players are fed up with the ODDS ON A ROLL!!!! Let's do this for the next first TUESDAY; A NEW GAME PRINTED with the odds the way it say it is! I can guarantee sales will go up! I am not too sure about other states odds per roll but be the FIRST to try this out!

Per the 2 $ 5.00 mega bucks games, omg, now there are 3?! According to the NCEL site, there are two older ones still showing, one released Aug. 4th, 2015 and the other was released June 3rd, 2014. There's a slight diff. in the looks of those tickets but not much. Well, I'll just steer away from those 2 ( now 3) for N/T to study them while rushing through the checkout at the store ! The 2 jumbo bucks games I can tell the diff. a bit easier but too much $$ for me to spend at one time, lol

Love the bah humbucks and peppermint payout

11/12/2015 02:52 - Denver G.

I love the 5 for $500 winning Weds. I wish they would always stay that way! If it's not already set in stone for next month's monthly drawing. How about giving 50 winners of $500 for next month's drawing. I don't think you guys have done that yet. The holidays are coming , and it would make a LOT of players happy !!!!

Curious, why are there 2 $ 5.00 mega bucks games and 2 $10 Jumbo bucks games ? Can be confusing, (especially since the mega bucks game tickets are practically identical ) when going to buy tickets and wanting to get the one with the most winning tickets left.NC Lottery
In the case of Mega Bucks, one of the games out is the new Merry Mega Bucks games. There is also an older version of Mega Bucks that has the old look, but still has some top prizes remaining. Same story for the old look Jumbo Bucks game. Top prizes remaining is a major factor in the decision to possibly end a lottery game or leave it on sale. Good luck!

Any win would be nice, but once again, I came up short. I would just like to get a 2nd chance win. My email address must be unlucky too. I would like to be a winner like TURBO but when you don't have funds like big lottery players you just sit and watch.

Is something wrong with the Lucke*Zone web page? It doesn't seem to be updating current winner information. NC Lottery

The choices to choose from on the questions must have been made up by someone that has no idea about Christmas or gift buying. I bet a lot of people taking the quiz was probably like, these choices are not even close.

11/09/2015 09:30 - Sharon J.

I try mostly around Sept. But do Start from the Last Christmas to financially make I have All covered..

11/09/2015 09:14 - jesus r.

I THINK THAT WHEN SOMEBODY GIVES YOU A LOTTERY TICKET/SCRATCH-OFF TICKET, IT COMES RECHARGED WITH GOOD LUCK FROM THE PERSON THAT GAVE IT TO YOU AS A GOOD WISH FOR YOU TO WIN. PLEASE SEND THEM ALL ON MY WAY SO WE CAN SPLIT THE PROFITS,THANKS! LOL...

Giting scratch offs gives those a chance that don't play to get in on scratch fun!Love it!

11/09/2015 03:33 - Denver G.

I always tell people I give tickets to, to share the wealth if the win big.

11/09/2015 02:27 - Doris E.

That was fun..I have given scratch tickets as gifts. The person that scratched $50 really enjoyed it.
