Well, I bought 5 Powerball Vermont tickets yesterday. I have never bought a lottery ticket before. I went up to the Customer Service counter at the Milton Hannaford's last night after dropping my daughter off at ballet. I looked like a bum since I haven't been able to grab a shower in a couple of days and I can only fit into this long dark grey hooded sweater coat so I looked total hobo.
I asked the lady at the counter if they sold Powerball. She said "YEAH we do!!" Apparently she is a big gamer. Or whatever you call serial lottery players. I asked how much they cost. Just $1!! WOW for $1 I could potentially win MILLIONS!!! So I said "Give me whatever I can get for $5!"
She took one look at me and said "I really really hope you win." LOL!
And like I assume all lottery ticket purchasers do I left with my pocket full of hopes and dreams. I stayed up checking the online lottery numbers but apparently they don't post them until after midnight and I'm an old fogey so I went to bed.
Here are the winning numbers:
Nuts.
