11. The first National State lottery in England was drawn in 1569. The first prize was £5,000, and other prizes included tapestries and high-quality linen cloth. How much does it cost to enter where you live (and have you ever bought a ticket)?


In Arizona there a big number of lotto games. Some winnings are In the thousand dollar range and others in the millions. Lotto is $2.00 a ticket. Not to long ago the lotto was in the billion dollar range. An Australian man won it.

Yes, I’ve bought tickets when it goes higher than 50 million dollars. But I’m weird, I only buy one ticket. If I could win I could Do it with only one ticket. So $2.00 a ticket isn’t going to break me. I could use a win. 😁

I'm a little early with this. It's not the 12th for another 45 minutes.

12. In 1948, the first Supermarket in the UK opened - the Co-op, the country’s first permanent self-service store, in East London’s Manor Park. Do you use one specific supermarket to buy groceries, and do they have a loyalty card scheme you belong to? How does it work?

Can you imagine how excited people were to see Grocery stores for the first time? I don't know what we'd do without our grocery store by our house. In fact, we have two that both offer very good sales each week. We shop at both stores. We also shop at Costco, which is a big warehouse. I love Costco for large quantities. We only shop there every 7-9 weeks. Then we go to Walmart for cleaning supplies and other things. It's close to our house, too. 1948 isn't too far off from my birth year. By the time I was old enough to go shopping, we had grocery stores all over town. And now people call in their grocery orders and have them filled, then swing by to pick everything up between 3-5:00. We have not tried that. I enjoy walking throughout the store. Good exercise, and I might find something that calls to me to make for dinner that night. Does anyone use that grocery delivery service? My brother in New Mexico uses it. He can't drive because he's losing his eyesight, so he puts in an order every week. He loves it. In his case, I think that's a good deal. For me, not so much.
