New Instant Tickets in Vermont (October 2026)

As of October 14, 2026, 10 Vermont instant tickets are new: 10 launched or first listed in the last 90 days. Newest first: Stocking Stuffer ($1, top prize $50).

No payout figure, on purpose. Vermont publishes only the top prize levels of each game, and how many of each are left, but not how many were printed. A payout, an expected value or the odds today each need every prize level and how many were printed, so for Vermont we show exactly what its lottery publishes and compute nothing from it. A figure built from part of a table would be wrong, not rough: it is how one state's partial table produced games that appeared to pay back more than they cost. How we treat partial prize tables.

"Flagged new" is Vermont's own label on its prizes-remaining list. "First listed" is the day a game first appeared in that list, which we have read since October 14, 2026; a game already there on our first day is not dated at all rather than given our date. Top prizes left and overall odds are Vermont's figures, unchanged.

What to expect from a new game

A game on its launch day has every prize unclaimed, so its top prizes are all still in play — the one thing that is certain about a new release and not about an old one. Beyond that a new game is neither a bargain nor a trap: its overall odds are printed on the ticket and do not change, and what a ticket is worth cannot be read from Vermont's figures: Vermont publishes only the top prize levels of each game, and how many of each are left, but not how many were printed.

Watch the top-prize count over the first weeks. A top prize claimed early is the most common way a new game loses its appeal for a jackpot hunter, and it shows up on the game's page here the day Vermont publishes it.

New Vermont instant tickets: common questions

How many new Vermont instant tickets are there?
10 as of October 14, 2026.
When did these games launch?
Where Vermont publishes a launch date it is shown. Games it only flags as new are listed without one.
Do new games have all their top prizes?
Usually most of them, but not always: a big prize can be claimed in a game's first week. The counts below are Vermont's own, as of October 14, 2026.
Why is there no payout for new Vermont games?
Vermont publishes only the top prize levels of each game, and how many of each are left, but not how many were printed. A payout cannot be computed from that, for a new game or an old one.
