Most I've ever won is 500 , I stopped at a little certified around 10:30 at night and I went to play a $5 monopoly scratch off but the lady told me she had just sold a $500 winner not long ago on that ticket so I went for a $5 winter spectacular and played 3 in a row without a win and went for another one , sure enough on the 4th ticket I started scratching and revealed the 25 then the 50 and then it kept going with the 100 and other matches all together for a $500 win 🏆 it was pretty awesome but haven't won much since but I keep trying through, congrats to whoever wins and happy scratching good luck
