Best $5 Mississippi Scratch-Offs (November 2026)

Data captured · 21 active $5 games

As of November 6, 2026, 21 $5 scratch-offs are on sale in Mississippi, averaging 80.4% current payout. The best of them is Money Bags at 74.3% ($3.71 back per ticket, 1 in 3.96 for any prize). Double the Money tops the list below at 125.1%, but a payout of 100% or more rests on our estimate of its unsold tickets where that estimate is least reliable, so we do not lead with it.

Price is the strongest predictor of payout on a scratcher: across a lottery's games, pricier tickets tend to return a larger share of their price in prizes. In Mississippi as of November 6, 2026, $1 games average 64.5%, $2 games average 67.8%, $3 games average 67.0%, $10 games average 65.6%, $20 games average 72.4%. That is a tendency, not a rule: within this $5 tier the spread between the best and worst game is 71.1 payout points, which is why the table matters more than the tier.
