why is the carolina black ticket is paid in instalments of 20 years not worth the trouble of buying if i have to wait 20 yearsNC Lottery
Hey Brenda, Just like with all of our other scratch-off games, prizes of $1 million or more offer winners the option of the 20 year $1 million annuity or a lump sum of $600,000.

Good morning LZ, I love the new $10 ticket. Question about an older one. When was the new run of Jumbo Bucks distributed? It appears to be the oldest $10 ticket , but it's not.NC Lottery
Hey there Denver, we did a reorder of the Jumbo Bucks game in September of last year.

Hey LZ, how come there's no $2 ticket this time? You almost always have a $2 ticket even if there's no new $20 ticket or whatever. What happened? I would rather have had a $2 ticket than a $1 one. At least there are sometimes some decent prizes there. The dollar tickets are practically pointless. NC Lottery
Great question, Tim. We try to release new games at varying price points throughout the year and since we can't release a new game at every price point every month, we sometimes have to make a decision on which new games and price points to release. Some folks enjoy the thrill and chance at a life-changing prize when they play a $20 game, while some prefer to stick to the $1 games for a smaller investment. We try to keep a good balance of games in each level so folks can always find something they're interested in playing.

Just wondering hearing thru grapevine that the $5 MEGA BUCK is going to be ending. this is one of my favorite game for years, been around a long time.NC Lottery
Hi William, thanks for sharing your feedback, we often hear that Mega Bucks is a player favorite! While our inventory can always change, there would be a good chance we bring the Mega Bucks ticket back if it sells out.
