Are local Christmas lottery tickets the perfect value present for family and friends?
/
Christmas is just a few weeks away, and maybe you want to buy your presents early this year before the rush.
But you can’t decide what kind of gift is a good match for that special person.
Michael of Brooklyn Park thought of the perfect answer when the Minnesota Lottery asked for a story for their website readers.
Their request said: “Whether you’ve won, nearly won, or just have great fun playing the lottery, we’d like to hear about it.
“Enter the Share Your Lottery Story Free Contest for a chance to win a lottery T-shirt and $25 in Minnesota Lottery scratch tickets. One winner will be drawn each month.”
Michael replied with this easy gift idea and received a mention on the Minnesota Lottery’s story page.
"Every year for Christmas my parents have a hard time trying to figure out what to give so now they give us 3 boys all lottery tickets with our families. We all sit around and do the scratch-offs and see who wins the most money. We all come dressed in our matching jammies and play the scratch-offs. It's tradition now."
The Lottery replied: “Thanks for sharing your story Mike! We love this tradition - and those matching jammies!”
There were more stories on the website from other players who shared their lottery experiences.
