OK not really, but I got your attention.
With any contest, like this one, there are a limited supply of winning cards.
The allusion to McDonald's Monopoly game was perfect. Millions of tickets are printed but only one wins the grand prize.
It's not like playing a video poker machine, where all hands have a random chance of coming up, (even if that chance is one in roughly 56,000 and the profit is based on the payout table) it's a game and a contest, created and controlled by the creator.
Progressive slots at casinos can actually be set to NOT pay off, until a selected number of coins have been played. The only reason I mention this is because of a case where someone rigged the machine and won, but the casino testified that the machine was not set to allow a win yet.
Don't worry, other slots and games are totally random, especially in Nevada where the regulations are the most stringent in the world.
But the casino on a Win A Car for 5c can set the machine to break even on costs, before it has the chance to pay.
Maybe it's easier to say, the Jackpot card game is a GAME. I trust that someday in the future, one of us will win.
