How fast it's selling

Over the last 4 weeks, about 0.8% of this game's prizes were reported claimed each week, about 4 times the average for Arizona's $3 games (0.2% a week).

From ScratchCheck's daily record of the lottery's published prize counts. Dates are when a claim first appeared in those counts, and small prizes are often cashed days after purchase, so claims trail actual sales.
