      @snerdterguson I go to one bank, I get a $25 box of pennies, search it for errors or pennies that are in perfect condition, if I only find 5 in a box, I replace that 5 cents with 5 cents from my pocket, take the rest of the box to bank 2, cash them in and go back to bank 1 and get another box. Some pennies get sold anywhere from $250 to $40,000 depending on what you find. And you just keep recycling the pennies, nickels, dimes, quarters, etc.
      If you never thought pocket coins could be worth so much, just look up the words MONDAY MARKET REPORT on youtube and watch one of those videos. Ill bet you may consider doing coins as well. Hahahahaa

    I've done some extensive study on scratch-offs. The best ones will return 80-85%. That is after accounting for all outstanding tickets. Typically, that means like 60% of all tickets have been sold, but only, for example, 1 in 5 top prizes have been claimed. The worse returns are around 50%. This is true for at least TX/CT

  • @JTC7007

    Jabs as a PA resident I know for a fact that a book of tix is expected to have around 30% return. So you hit big that means how many books have less then 30%
    Also every tix is a winner....either you win or the state wins

    I get lottery tickets as tips sometimes I suspect that it's possible to scan whether they're winners without scratching them because none of those have ever gotten even a dollar. On the other hand I want to say at least 50% of the tickets I buy yield something, although very commonly not as much as they cost. But something. Watching you go through without getting even a cent back makes me wonder if you got scammed. If I was designing them I would make it actually very rare for you to get nothing at all on a piece of cardboard you paid 50 bucks for. Seems like it would be way better for business if you would get something, like maybe 10 bucks. Then you could feel like you won something and it was worth buying them, and I'm still $40 ahead

    Both of them are luck of the draw unless your buying them with the odds in mind. All lottery tickets come with odds of 1:X number of tickets. Same as hits in baseball cards. If you go and buy 5 tickets where the odds are 1:4.5 then your probably gonna win something.

    You definitely had some terrible luck with those lottery tickets! I get a few ever so often and overall usually get my money back or slight lose over a period of time. I did get lucky a few times and make about $60 profit over about $100 of tickets, but I've never gotten zero like that. Usually the more expensive tickets ($30+) are better of at least getting you most of your money back if you don't hit something good.
