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 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.

DOUBLE YOUR MONEY
It’s a $5 ticket that came out in February of 2022. This game ends next month and all of the $500,000 and all the $10,000 prizes are gone. Best you could do on this one is a $1,000 winner.

Florida Lottery
$50,000 DIAMOND MINE
A $2 ticket, but all of the $50,000 winners are gone. Like the last one, this ticket also ends on August 4th. There’s some $2,000 winners left, but all 12 of the $50,000 winners have been claimed.

Florida Lottery
$2 MONOPOLY DOUBLER
There were 8 of the $100,000 winning cards but they’ve all been claimed. Best you could do on this card is $2,500.

Florida Lottery
BILLION DOLLAR GOLD RUSH SUPREME
How much would it hurt dropping $30 on a card when you have no chance of hitting the $15 million dollar jackpot? That’s because 4 people already did just that and now they’re gone. Of the 24 $1 million dollar prizes, 2 of those are left. Heck, only 2 of the $100,000 tickets are still out there.

Florida Lottery
50X THE CASH
It’s a $5 card with the chance to win a million. But you won’t. All the million dollar cards are gone. You could still pick up $10,000 or one of the other prizes, but if you have dreams of buying a boat you may wanna pass on this one.

Florida Lottery
$5,000,000 CASHWORD
Nope. All the $5 million dollar prizes are gone. 3 of the $1 million dollar prizes are yet to be claimed. So if you like the crossword tickets, this one still has some winners left.

Florida Lottery
What about the reverse?
Tickets that have ALL of their big winners left. That’s what I want. The Florida Lottery dropped some new games yesterday, so those all have the big winners left. Plus there’s another one that came out back in February that still hasn’t hit. We’ll cover that one, too.
$250K A YR FOR LIFE
This one just came out on July 3rd. It’s a $10 ticket and 4 people can win that grand prize. Do you still keep going to your job if you win this? Probably not.

Florida Lottery
$150K A YR FOR LIFE
The $5 version of this series that just came out. I could get by on $150K a year. It looks like a few of the $500 prizes have been claimed but the rest are out there.

Florida Lottery
$50K A YR FOR LIFE
And now the $2 version of the series. Like the others, this card just came out on July 3rd. All 8 of the grand prizes are available.

Florida Lottery
$25K A YR FOR LIFE
The dollar ticket version. You’re not going to retire on this money, but it’d certainly make a difference. There’s 4 top winners.

Florida Lottery
MONOPOLY™ SECRET VAULT
This is an odd $3 ticket that came out back in May. It still has most of the big winners left. 8/8 $100,000 winners, 12/16 $25,000 winners, and 22/24 $10,000 winners all yet to be claimed.

Florida Lottery
$1M YR/LIFE SPEC
One million dollars a year for life. We’ve talked about this one before as it came out in February. It’s a $50 ticket with a massive grand prize. There’s 2 of those tickets and both are still out there. There’s 234 of the one million dollar prizes and only 43 of those have been claimed.

Florida Lottery
What else?
The 500X the cash has certainly made a lot of headlines around here. It’s a $50 ticket that came out in February of 2022. It advertises 2 – $25 million dollar prizes. George Demetriades of Bonita Springs got one of the $25 million dollar cards back in May of 2022, but the other one is still out there. Someone in Naples won a million off this card about 6 weeks ago. There’s still 13 one million dollar winners left.

That should get you started.
