I got a piece of mail today indicating that if I scratched off a bubble and the number matched the number already printed on the voucher I would win won of three prizes. Of course both numbers matched and I now have the chance of getting either 10,000 in cash, a 2,500 gift card from Wal-Mart or 100.00 in cash. It says that all I have to do is take it to the automotive dealership listed on the voucher and can pick up the prize. Seems to easy to me.

There should be included in the paperwork an odds of winning section that tells you what it is you most likely will get. Usually, if the odds are 1 in 1 million for every prize except for teh one that says 999 thousand out of 1 million, you will get the prize listed with the best odds. However, it is truly a gamble, and you never know until you go in and check, just don't expect the big prize, and realize they may try to hard sell to you once you come in.
Two things there, leave your checkbook and credit cards at home, bring you license to show that you are who you say you are, and you have less chance of buying something.
If the contest was on the up and up, it would just tell you what you won, but if you have to go somewhere to check on it, it is a sales ploy to get you in the door where they can throw you the pitch.
