Good evening if I was to win for the new year, I hope it would b enough to get me and my daughter some where to stay. We lost out trailer, and my baby sleeps n my mother's house and I sleep out side n a building. I have always took care of us and never got evicted. But losing our home to someone trying to burn it down has put a tole on us. God bless whomever wins and happy new year.

NC lottery needs to figure out other ways for promotions. Not everyone is on Facebook Or Instagram! Promos should not depend on those platforms. Post it on the NC Lottery Page.NC Lottery
Hi Christy, thanks for sharing your feedback. This promotion is only available on social platforms. I wanted to share our recent blog outlining additional Lucke Rewards and retail promos launching in January: https://nclottery.com/NewsBlogDetails/2025/12/31/Celebrate-the-new-year-with-January-promotions. Also, keep an eye on our blog for more chances to win this later this month!

How many times can keep playing the Lucke-Rewards games to earn more chances?NC Lottery
Hi Chris, if you're referring to the Lucke Rewards games in the "Earn Points" section, the number of times you can play can vary from game to game. For instance you can play the "Spin to Win" game once per month, and the "Cash POP play for Points" game 5 times per month.
