Cheapest isn't always best
Set for Life and Weekday Windfall both come in at 68 cents per game — less than a dollar for a shot at a life-changing prize. But cheap tickets with poor odds or small jackpots can actually be worse value than more expensive tickets with better odds-to-prize ratios.
The smarter question isn't "which is cheapest?" — it's "which gives me the most chance per dollar?" That's what our rating measures.
How to use the Lotto Logic sort
On the Lotto Logic homepage, hit the "Cheapest" sort button to see all lotteries ordered by price. The rating column still shows overall value — so you can quickly spot which cheap tickets are also good value, and which are cheap for a reason.
If you're buying a ticket anyway, knowing the price is only half the picture. Check the rating before you buy.
