Over the past year and a half or so, I notice the same guy buying hundreds of dollars ($400-600) of the pick 3, pick 4, pick 5 at the grocery store I go to mostly. I asked one of the clerks about him and he is coming in every week or two weeks. She didn't think he's buying for anyone else.

What am I missing? Is there something to figure out here?

He definitely has a LOT of disposable income if he can play $400-$600 of pick games every week or two weeks. 💡 Hmm. There were reports of a guy who won $100,000 buy buying something like 7213 straight at a $1 20 times for $5,000 each ticket, but he only spent $20, not $400-$600.🤔💡

For a minute, I thought he was buying $400 worth of the groceries on sale where you have to buy 3 or more of them, but you can mix and match (i.e. you can buy 1 each of A, B, and C, or 2 of one and 1 of another, or 3 of any one of them).

Don't Pick 3s pay 500 for 1? What's the point of buying 400 of them?

He's buying 400 of them because he's hoping it will hit for $200,000. 😀 That's a REALLY good return on just $400. 😀
