Set an affordable monthly budget of how much you're going to spend on scratchers and stick with it. That way you won't get sucked dry . Budget discipline is the key.

Strict budget, what price tickets?
Hi everyone! I recently decided I d like to purchase $30 worth of scratch off tickets each month. I m strict about my budget.

Thirty $1 tickets Fifteen $2 Ten $3 Six $5 Or a combination of the above? And why? My goal is to have fun while keeping the door open for a surprise win. If I win 40 cents per dollar back I ll be m

Buying 20 WoF tickets was the worst $200 I've spent recently. My scratcher budget is nearly depleted.

How many scratch tickets do you buy at the store?Reply
I play regularly but due to limited budget, I usually only buy 1 at a time but occasionally I buy more.

Budgeting When Buying Instants
Ok, I have finally hit a tipping point with the instant games. I have been buying way too many lately and not winning a fair percentage back, so I am going to start a budget. Starting next week, I am only going to buy $10 worth of instant tickets per week. I could get 10 $1 tix one week or 2 $5 or just one $10 ticket. But, I think my new strategy will involve buying tickets from different machines, places, etc. What has your budget been for lottery instant games and pick 3, pick, 4,

Oh man, that is some crazy shizit: the GA meeting leader buying 3 rolls...WOW! I hope things work out better for you James. I just try to stick to a lottery entertainment budget, whatever is comfortable for you. For me I do without Cable TV, don't miss it at all. And do without Starbucks couple times each day. Don't miss that either. Together that money saved funds my lotto budget. Find something that works for you.

College Student Who Just Got into Scratchers – Advice?Reply
$20 cards give the best bang for the buck. $10 are the next biggest bang. $5 cards are junk and need only be played here and there and at 4 max at a time. OR 1 from each slot of a row in a IVM. We are talking budget here and a budget seldom includes lottery at all. The overall feeling I get from the OP's post is that s/he is going to try the instants and is looking for advice on just how to do it right. There is no right but there is a way to do it. Research on the PA lotter
