Is the Ticket Worth It?
Daily PokéStop spins yield approximately 28 incubators, valued at roughly 4200 PokéCoins ($4.20 USD), nearly matching the ticket price. Considering additional XP and gifts, the ticket offers good value if you regularly purchase incubators. However, if egg hatching isn't a priority or weather conditions limit gameplay, the extra benefits might not justify the cost unless you heavily utilize the gifting system. The decision depends on individual play style and priorities.
