Merry Money 10X is a $5 scratch-off that has been on the market for 22 weeks. The ROI is -50.5%, so this one is best played for entertainment rather than value. Each ticket returns an expected $2.47 in prize value. All top prizes have been claimed — focus on lower tiers if you're still interested. Among the 9 active $5 games in New Mexico, Merry Money 10X ranks #6 by expected value.

Alternative Strategy

Instead of buying one Merry Money 10X ($5) ticket, consider buying 1x Lucky Numbers ($3) + 1x Cherry Twist ($2). This combination delivers $2.76 in expected value compared to $2.47 for the single ticket — a 11.4% improvement. It also gives you a 43.9% chance of winning at least one prize versus 26.0% with the single ticket.
