I had the oddest piece of junk mail in my mailbox today. It is a coupon.....Buy two get one free on scratch off loterry tickets sold at any kentucky lottery retailer!!! That is the strangest thing I have ever seen!!! I just don't think of lottery tickets as something that would be advertised in this manner! Do you find that strange?

Boy talk about promoting gambling.
I don't find it strange at all, it just fits in and makes as much sense as most things that go on, then people wonder why the world is going to pieces.
Just my thoughts.

Yeah, I shake my head too Grandma. Seems the folks I see buying lottery tickets are often those who can least afford to gamble their money. I don't understand. If I had only 10 dollars, rather than spend it on lottery tickets in hopes of making more money....but running the chance of ending up with zero dollars, I would either save the 10 dollars or apply it towards food or some bill that needed to be paid. I know the temptation to 'make that 10 dollars into more' is big, but I couldn't do it!

As a non gambler it doesn't surprise me. It doesn't entice me either.
