Weekly Winnings, Arizona Lottery's newest draw game, launched this past September. It has a prize structure completely different from any other draw game currently being offered. The top prize is $1,000 per week for a year or a lump sum of $52,000, taxes paid.

The addition of Weekly Winnings to the selection of Arizona Lottery products was a direct response to players' requests for new games and more ways to win. Weekly Winnings has already been extremely popular with Arizona Lottery players. In fact, there have already been nine top prize winners of $1,000 per week for a year since the game launched!

Weekly Winnings game play consists of the player selecting a set of four numbers or choosing a computer-generated Quick Pick for the top prize of $1,000 per week for one year. Then the computer selects five more sets of numbers for the second and third prizes. Prizes for a winning ticket are awarded when a player matches each number within one of the sets of numbers. Prizes, not including the top prize, range from $2 to $10,000.

Tickets for Weekly Winnings cost $2 each with drawings every Tuesday and Friday, at approximately 9:40 p.m. MST. Tickets are available at any Arizona Lottery retailer.

Weekly Winnings make great stocking stuffers for anyone 21 years or older on your gift list, especially since Christmas falls on a Tuesday this year. What could be a better gift, than giving someone a chance at an extra $1,000 per week?

As always, a full family of Holiday Scratchers tickets is also available this year. They are another great gift option from the Arizona Lottery and come with free holiday gift envelopes. Holiday Scratchers range in price from $1 to $10 and are the perfect gift for the person who has everything.
