Would you spend $30 on a NY Lottery scratch ticket?

Question

Is it me, or are they going a little overboard? I am really starting to believe if they had a $100 scratch ticket people would still be buying them like crazy. Do people really have that much money to gamble with?? I know I don't.

Answer 1

the most i have spent was 10,i win on the 10.00 ticket a fue times in nc,when i stoped winning i stoped buying it but yes people go a little over board.

Answer 2

No I will put that 30 dollars in my gas tank.

Answer 3

The most I have spent on one of those was $20.00, and then I kicked myself afterwords.  Much to steep for my budget, but, you are right, some people would probably buy them at $100.00 a pop.

Answer 4

well...there's always someone that's willing to buy them...For the people that can afford a $20 ticket...$10 more is not that much.

They don't force you to buy them, but they are there if you want them.

Some people say that in our current economic situation, with the economy being what it is, it's "Morally unethical" to even sell a $30 scratchoff...

Believe it or not, in Feb. 2009, they are coming out with a $50 scratchoff.
