I filled the bar 6 times to get the SEC and couple of Joker cards. Here are my results:

Tier 6 - Once again Rainbow Candies were used most frequently, with a little bit of Juicy Pinks and Honey Pots.
Main prize: Joker

Credit balance (after filling the bar): -320
Other winnings:

The 6th tier was bad so I decided to stop. I ended up spending 625 credits. For this amount of credits I've got 5 Jokers and 3 Special Event Cards (one for filling the first bar and 2 won in scratch games). This gives me:
625/(5+3) = 625/8 = 78,125 credits per card
Was it worth it? I don't know. You decide.
