I just read that the Florida Lottery announced that on April 30, 2012, the Miami District set a $1 billion sales record within a 12-month period. This is the first time in Florida Lottery history that any individual district has achieved this milestone.
They said...."It's exciting to break sales records that have stood for nearly a quarter century and I want to recognize the hard work and dedication of both management and staff in the Miami District Office for this achievement," said Florida Lottery Secretary Cynthia O'Connell. "Our diverse product line of Terminal and Scratch-Off games is generating excitement among our players and we are seeing the results. Year-to-date sales are running more than 11 percent higher than last year. The increase in sales also means additional revenue for education programs in Florida. We thank our players and retailers for their support and commitment to improving the lives of Florida's youth."
No wonder there are so many Sl Fl winners~~!!
