Thanks for stopping my and for the inspiration for the post 🙂 I guess if he’s into it then it would make a pretty good gift – just don’t bet the ranch!!

I enjoy buying a few scratch offs every now and then and save up really helps to scratch the itch of "winning" without having to pay for anything.

You link all of your accounts and they will give you points for saving money. The points let you play these games where you can win prizes. I've only one once–I think it was like $50 bucks, but I do saveup everyday and it feels pretty close to the lottery.
