If nothing says Thanksgiving to you like a wobbly red blob with the can lines still on it, you re not alone Ocean Spray (whose farmers produce 65 % of the world s cranberries) told the Wall Street Journal that Americans will consume 80 million pounds of the tart berries next week. Though the holiday makes for the 93 -year-old farming cooperative s biggest sales, it s been innovating for decades to keep cranberries on your mind even when you don t have a turkey. The company pioneered juice b

Lottery Post's guide to 2023 holiday raffles across the USAReply
The idea is that tickets are bought and the money goes into this pot for a December drawing. All the tickets that are sold are put into the draw and depending on the size of the pot at the drawing time, the number of winners is determined at that point after the close of sales. So yes in the US the pot can get to over billions, the idea is embracing the holiday season and spreading the cheer. As for the groups and such, mostly it would be fun if families contributed to the tickets.

Did Michigan just lower their cash payouts?Reply
I forgot that there are people on here that clearly do not understand annuities. The Michigan annuity prizes pay out 33,333.33 per year for 30 years per million dollar prize. The annuity is now funded with a lower cash value! I do not believe they made the change based on interest rates but maybe they only increased the cash amount for their 50th anniversary celebration. They are always making changes and not telling the players so I can only speculate. My point being Michiga

There is an entertainment product making more money than Taylor Swift s Eras Tour. The video game Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom sold 10 million copies globally in its first three days, generating more sales (an estimated $700 million) than any movie s box-office debut this year and more than Swift s romp around the country, per Axios. Tears of the Kingdom could ultimately unseat Hogwarts Legacy as the best-selling video game of 2023. 100-346-010-232-568 458-948 100 336-50

Mega Millions Just The Jackpot
In my state the lottery commission offers an alternative to the regular $2 Mega Millions ticket. It's called Just The Jackpot . (I'll call it JTJ for short.) You get two tickets for $3, but you can only win the jackpot. Lower tier prizes are eliminated. Two interesting questions arise: (1) At what Expected Value of the Jackpot does the JTJ offer a better expected value of return per unit bet compared to a $2 regular ticket, and (2) At what Expected Values of the Jackpot do a regular $2 ticket an

Lotto Jackpot QuestionsReply
Prior to living Florida I was a resident of The State of New York. It was quite a few years ago (but I dont think it was more than 10 years ago) that The NY Lottery offered an online game called Sweet Million . It was a 6/40 game with 3,838,383 to 1 odds to win one million dollars provided you matched all six numbers that were drawn. It's hard to find an online game with odds that low to win a million dollars. Players absolutely hated the game. It had lousy lower tier prizes... the seco

While beer is considered as quintessentially American as other German imports like hamburgers and frankfurters, 2023 was a rough year for brewskis in the US. Consumption levels fell to their lowest in years, as fewer than 200 million barrels were estimated to have been shipped for the first time since 1999, according to Beer Marketer s Insights. And it wasn t just the Bud Light boycott taking a bite out of sales, experts told NBC, as beer now has to compete with new sugary alcoholic drinks being

Y all are eating a whole lot of Cup of Noodles. The demand for instant noodles jumped 2.6% globally to a record high of 121.2 billion servings last year as inflation drove up food prices, according to figures from the World Instant Noodles Association. The just-add-water dinner is most popular in China and other Asian countries, but they are gaining ground in North America, too. In the US, their popularity dipped 1.4% in 2021, but sales rebounded by 3.4% in 2022. Two major Japanese noodle c
