Jim Bauer @kareng I'd have to see a Dirt Cheap to make a comparison, but I do know any Dollar General I have ever been in has been horrible. If Dirt Cheap is worse than Dollar General, that's quite profound. lol

Almost everyone has a coin jar that they toss their change into, to periodically take to the bank and cash out to either deposit into a savings account, or just simply spend it. Of course, I always advocate for putting it...

Jim Bauer I have not had Cheetos in a while, but I do like them. The pigs in a blanket were just what the doctor ordered.

Jim Bauer @kareng The nice thing about our main state lottery is that the jackpots can get into the tens of millions unlike the main one in Wisconsin which usually rarely got past $2 million before someone hit it. Our current Illinois Lotto jackpot is $8 million.

Jim Bauer They can be with anything. Hot dogs, Vienna sausages, Lil Smokies, even sausage links or bratwurst. Another version of pigs in a blanket are breakfast sausage links wrapped in a pancake.

Jim Bauer Yeah, you can make them with smaller dogs or Lil Smokies, but they are very good either way. I just decided to make them into bigger ones since I thought they would be fine to eat that way. They were very good. Your dinner sounds awesome.

Jim Bauer @kareng Hopefully you got it, even though some schmuck in California took the loot. Seems it's always New York or California. Can't the Midwest have a chance? Although I do recall a few wins like the one in New Berlin, Wisconsin and one in Red Bud, Illinois.

Jim Bauer @LindaOHio I mean, if it wasn't just a mere $2 I'd say forget it. But $2 is a drop in the bucket. Of course, it's no longer worth the billion now that some schmuck in California won it. But hey, there's always next time, and maybe Powerball will get up there...
