A scented Scratcher game from the New Mexico Lottery is available now to holiday shoppers seeking fun surprises for stocking stuffers, hostess gifts, greeting cards and those ever-practical and predictable presents of sweat socks and underwear. 

The peppermint-scented “Candy Cane Magic” conceals 10 numbers under images of red-and-white candy mints. The fragrant game is priced at $2. It’s one of three holiday Scratcher games featuring top prizes of $1,000, $15,000 and $65,000.

New Year’s Eve Raffle

On Dec. 31, the lottery will draw winning numbers for the New Year’s Eve Raffle, which offers prizes totaling $625,000.  With only 125,000 tickets in the game, players have the best odds ever to win one of the four top prizes of $125,000 each.  A raffle ticket is priced at $10.

Scratchers and New Year’s Eve Raffle tickets are featured in the lottery’s holiday gift guide.

The Gift of Education

When players purchase New Mexico Lottery games, they’re giving the gift of a college education. Since 1996, the lottery has raised $331 million for education and more than 48,000 students have attended college on Legislative Lottery Scholarships.
