During our last visit to Marigot we parked down the street facing the water and across from the cemetery...maybe a 5-7 minute walk. During that short walk no less than 4 cars stopped, all driven by males and with a smiling female in the passengers seat.

All the friendly girls had scratch tickets in their hands... .

Once in the Mullet Beach parking lot I was curious and wanted to see what I "won" and it was a decent prize. The couple on a scooter (to me always screams scratch card scam approaching) insisted on getting in our car for the ride to the resort and would not back off. I lost it a bit and they left mumbling some words in French.

I can GUARANTEE that there will always be a winner in the ones given out. No one would be tempted by just a drink...and no handout couple gets any bonus because of the "rare" winner. They get paid if you show up plain and simple.
