July 24 Weekend Picks: The Best Scratch Tickets to Buy in Every Region

We pulled fresh prize data across all four Canadian lottery regions this week. Every pick below has 100% of its top prizes still unclaimed — meaning nobody's quietly walked off with the jackpot before you got there.

Smart Picks ranks every active scratch ticket by remaining prize value — updated daily. Start your 14-day free trial — no credit card needed.

The $100 Élite ticket is now on its second straight week at a perfect record in Ontario, BC, and Québec all at once — fifteen $10,000,000 top prizes, still untouched everywhere it's sold. The other big story this week is the $1,000,000 Ultra, which had been the Prairies' exclusive clean pool last week — it's now dropped to 4 of 6 in the WCLC data too, so no region currently holds a spotless Ultra pool.

All data is pulled directly from the Scratchers Edge tracker. OLG data is current as of July 21, BCLC as of July 21, WCLC as of July 16, and Loto-Québec as of July 14.

ℹ️ How we pick: We rank by the percentage of top prizes still unclaimed. 100% means every jackpot for that ticket is still out there — no one has claimed any of them yet.

🍁 Ontario — OLG

Two of last week's Ontario picks carry over unchanged, and a new $5 option steps in after Super Money Multiplier slipped to 3 of 4. XWords is the replacement, and it's a clean $100,000 pool across all six top prizes.

XWords

XWORDS

$5 ticket $100,000 top prize 6 of 6 remaining (100%)

All six $100,000 top prizes still sitting untouched. XWords takes over as Ontario's $5 pick this week after Super Money Multiplier's pool thinned to 75% — proof these rankings shift as prizes get claimed. See live OLG data →

$350,000 Big Money

$350,000 BIG MONEY

$20 ticket $350,000 top prize 4 of 4 remaining (100%)

Still a perfect four for four, unclaimed since January. This is the third week running Big Money has held the top $20 spot in Ontario — one of the longest clean streaks on this list. See live OLG data →

Elite

ELITE

$100 ticket $10,000,000 top prize 5 of 5 remaining (100%)

Elite holds its perfect record for a second week — same national ticket, same untouched $10,000,000 pool, also 100% in BC and Québec right now. The biggest single jackpot in the country, still fully intact everywhere. See live OLG data →

🌊 British Columbia — BCLC

Set for Life XII extends its perfect run to a fourth straight week — still the best pure value pick in the country. Joining it this week is $50 Extreme, a clean $5,000,000 jackpot and the second-biggest prize on this whole list, plus BC's own copy of Élite.

Set for Life XII

SET FOR LIFE XII

$5 ticket $675,000 top prize 12 of 12 remaining (100%)

Extreme

EXTREME

$50 ticket $5,000,000 top prize 3 of 3 remaining (100%)

All three $5,000,000 top prizes untouched. It's a steep entry price, but this is the second-biggest jackpot on the entire list this week — and every copy of it is still clean. See live BCLC data →

Elite

ELITE

$100 ticket $10,000,000 top prize 5 of 5 remaining (100%)

Same national ticket as Ontario's and Québec's — same $10,000,000 prize, same five untouched top prizes, two weeks running. The priciest ticket on this list, and still the biggest single jackpot going in BC. See live BCLC data →

🌾 The Prairies — WCLC

The Prairies' $1,000,000 Ultra — last week's only fully-clean copy of that ticket left in the country — has now slipped to 4 of 6 as well. In its place, The Bigger $pin steps in with a spotless $75,000 pool, joining two holdover picks that are still perfect.

The Bigger $pin

THE BIGGER $PIN

$10 ticket $75,000 top prize 7 of 7 remaining (100%)

All seven $75,000 top prizes untouched. This steps in as the Prairies' $10 pick now that Ultra has thinned out everywhere — a solid jackpot with a completely clean record across seven separate prizes. See live WCLC data →

Pawprint Payout

PAWPRINT PAYOUT

$20 ticket $400,000 top prize 2 of 2 remaining (100%)

Two $400,000 top prizes, both still unclaimed. Still the best $20 option in the Prairies — a solid jackpot with a clean availability record four weeks running. See live WCLC data →

Lucky Lines Extravaganza

LUCKY LINES EXTRAVAGANZA

$7 ticket $200,000 top prize 4 of 4 remaining (100%)

Still the budget pick of the week in the Prairies. Four $200,000 top prizes completely untouched on a $7 ticket, holding steady for a fourth week in a row. See live WCLC data →

⚜️ Québec — Loto-Québec

Super Jeu de mots drops off this week after slipping to 1 of 3, and 777 steps in as the new budget pick with a perfect seven-for-seven pool. Maxi Gain holds steady, and Québec keeps its copy of the $10,000,000 Élite ticket.

777

$5 ticket $77,777 top prize 7 of 7 remaining (100%)

Québec's new budget pick, all seven $77,777 top prizes untouched. A fun, lucky-numbers ticket at a low entry price with a completely clean pool to back it up. See live Loto-Québec data →

Maxi Gain

MAXI GAIN

$30 ticket $300,000 top prize 2 of 2 remaining (100%)

Both $300,000 top prizes are still unclaimed, holding steady for a third week. The biggest jackpot in Québec outside of Élite, and a reasonable step up if you want more than the $5 picks offer. See live Loto-Québec data →

Élite

ÉLITE

$100 ticket $10,000,000 top prize 5 of 5 remaining (100%)

The third and final region carrying the $10,000,000 Élite ticket this weekend — same five untouched top prizes as Ontario and BC, second week running. Fifteen million-dollar prizes across the country, all still up for grabs. See live Loto-Québec data →

The Bottom Line

12Weekend picks across 4 regions
12With 100% top prizes remaining
$5Cheapest pick this weekend
$10MBiggest jackpot — available in 3 regions

Twelve picks, twelve at 100% again this week. The $100 Élite ticket keeps its clean sweep of Ontario, BC, and Québec for a second week running — fifteen million-dollar prizes between the three of them, nobody's claimed a single one. Meanwhile the $1,000,000 Ultra story that ran for weeks has finally closed out: last week it was down to only the Prairies holding a clean pool, and now that's gone too, with WCLC's copy slipping to 4 of 6. BC's $5 Set for Life keeps its perfect record as the best pure value pick going, now four weeks running.

Remember that 100% availability doesn't mean the jackpot is likely — it means you're not walking into a game that's already been picked clean. The odds on the front of the ticket haven't changed. What's changed is that you know the prize pool is still full. That's the edge. Check the Scratchers Edge dashboard for the latest numbers before you buy.

⚠️ Play responsibly: These picks are based on prize availability data — not a prediction of your outcome. Scratch tickets are gambling. Set a budget and stick to it. If gambling is causing problems, visit responsiblegambling.org or call 1-800-522-4700.
