It’s summertime in Southwest Florida, and it’d certainly be nice to catch a big win before hurricane season. Everyone talks ‘hurricane prep’ this time of year, but you know what’s needed? Money to buy all the hurricane prep. Everything costs more than it did last year. Well, most everything. Florida Lottery scratch off tickets are still priced the same. But some of these tickets are no bargain. Did you know that some of the tickets behind the counter have no chance of hitting big?
The Florida Lottery keeps very close tabs on their scratch off tickets. Way more than we could ever hope to do. But one thing they do for us, is publish their information. But it is a lot of information, so I’ll break it down for you.
When you go the counter or the machine in Fort Myers, Naples, or wherever, you really have no idea what you’re doing. You pick one that you think “feels lucky” and then give them your money. A $5 ticket where you could win $500,000? Sounds nice – but it’s not going to happen if you get the wrong ticket. It’d really be nice if this information was posted when you go to buy tickets, but if they did that no one would buy the tickets where you couldn’t win big. So I’ll do it for you.
Here’s the list of Florida Lottery scratch off tickets with all the Grand Prizes gone
Some of these still have some bigger prizes available, but all the big prize winners are gone. We’ll also touch on some of the newer games that have all their big top prizes left. So let’s get started. This list is current as of July 4th, 2023.
