LIVE YOUR ‘PRICE IS RIGHT’ DREAMS WITH OLG’S NEW $5 INSTANT PLINKO

 

Toronto, ON – Ontario Lottery and Gaming Corporation (OLG) is ringing in 2021 by bringing a great new game from THE PRICE IS RIGHT to a lottery retailer near you. The new $5 INSTANT PLINKO game combines traditional scratch play, with a chance to win cash prizes, an in-store win experience and, for top prize winners, the opportunity to drop a chip on a real PLINKO Board to win up to $500,000.

With the introduction of the new game, OLG is also launching a unique initiative for its lottery retailers. Profits from the first three months of sales of INSTANT PLINKO (from January 4 to March 31, 2021) will be directed back to the stores that sell these tickets.

“This is OLG’s way of thanking the more than 5,300 retailer owners across the province for exceptional service to lottery customers in hundreds of local communities,” said OLG’s President and CEO, Duncan Hannay. “OLG’s lottery retailers drive customer awareness and sales growth of new lottery games, which in turn benefits OLG, the Province, and all Ontarians. OLG is proud to support Ontario business, and with this initiative we are contributing to economic recovery in the communities served by our valued partners.”

$5 INSTANT PLINKO is only available in Ontario and sales began today at OLG’s approximately 10,000 retail locations. Odds of winning any prize are 1 in 3.97. Odds of winning a PLINKO top prize are 1 in 1,071,000. For more information on How to Play as well as full prize details and odds of winning, visit OLG.ca.
