The odds printed on Merry & Bright were set the day it went to print and they never move. The real odds do, every single day, as prizes get claimed and tickets sell. When the $500 prizes get scooped up faster than the tickets sell, the real odds on that top prize get worse than what’s on the front. When tickets sell faster than the big prizes go, they get better. With 10 of 10 top prizes still out there, whether Merry & Bright is worth your money comes down to the odds today — and for this game that number is right above, free.
