- I was wondering this as well. Yes, they can, but I'd think people check them before bringing in 50 tickets to scan. -- nm - JaxSean Mar 30, 05:25 1
  - sure, but it would be so easy to miss the smaller prizes on that many tickets -- nm - The Unsinkable Andie Brown Mar 30, 06:05
I'm in the middle of doing this on a spreadsheet I made that will tell how many of each prize has been won. - zork Mar 29, 21:48 8
