The DIY Scratch-Off Card
Make a real scratch-off ticket at home and let them win a hoco date.
“Congrats, you scratched your way into a date. HOCO?”
Write the question on a card, cover the words with clear packing tape, then paint over it with silver acrylic mixed with a squirt of dish soap. Once it dries they scratch it off with a coin like a lottery ticket and your line shows up underneath. Costs a few dollars and looks way more expensive than it is.
