I’ve discovered the perfect gift for the hunter who seems to have everything. My husband is an avid hunter — deer, turkey, you name it — and I love the sparkle in his eyes when it’s time to head out. The one challenge for me is always finding a gift he doesn’t already own.

This post is part of a collaboration with the Arkansas Scholarship Lottery and The Women Bloggers. It’s a sponsored post, but all opinions are my own — and I truly love this idea.
Day 1… The Perfect Gift For The Hunter Who Has Everything
If your hunter is anything like mine, he often buys what he needs before holidays or birthdays arrive. So when gift-giving time comes, I need something clever and unexpected. Partnering with the Arkansas Scholarship Lottery inspired a simple but delightful solution: slip lottery scratch-off tickets into his hunting snacks. It’s small, fun, and perfectly suited to someone who already has all the gear.

I usually handle the snacks my husband takes to the deer stand — jerky, trail mix, drinks — and this year I decided to be a little sneaky. While packing his essentials, I tucked a few scratch-off tickets into his snack bag as a surprise. He loves scratching tickets, and combining that with a hunt makes for a fun, unexpected treat. To make it extra special, I created free printable gift tags to attach to the tickets.

These printable tags pair especially well with Arkansas Scholarship Lottery scratch-off games like Jumbo Bucks, but any of their tickets work. They add a personal touch and make the surprise feel like a proper gift.

Print the free gift tags and set your printer to landscape for best results. You can also print “To and From” tags if you want to include a simple message on the package.

One of the funniest parts is picturing your hunter at the stand, rifling through gear to find something to use as a scratcher. It’s a silly image that will likely make you both laugh.

Why I appreciate the Arkansas Scholarship Lottery: a large portion of lottery revenue supports prizes, scholarships, retailer commissions, and state expenses. Since its launch in 2009, the lottery has contributed significant funding to scholarships for Arkansas students and returned substantial prize money to players.
I hope this idea — the perfect gift for the hunter who has everything — gives you inspiration for an easy, thoughtful surprise. I’ll be sharing four more creative ways to use lottery tickets during the holidays, so consider subscribing to get future posts delivered to your inbox.
