Bringing Lucky Back ~ A Chance to Win!

This is a sponsored post written by me on behalf of The Illinois Lottery for IZEA. All opinions are 100% mine.

Are you feeling lucky? I want to let my readers know about the Halloween Millionaire Raffle from the Illinois Lottery, which is a fan favorite! A drawing randomly selects three winners of $1,000,000 each on November 1st. Only 400,000 tickets are being sold so it’s the best odds to win $1 million dollars. Even if you don’t typically play the lottery, the raffle is a fun way to try your luck.  To help celebrate this event, I’m giving away an Illinois Lottery gift bag here on my blog that you can win simply by leaving a comment at the end of this post saying what you would do with the winnings. The lottery is bringing lucky back!

My sample gift bag arrived when my daughter Bridget was over, so I persuaded her to help me with photos by modeling with the bag! It was a beautiful fall day outside so we walked to the forest preserve at the end of my street.

Bridget is almost 9 months pregnant, in case you couldn’t tell!  She’s wearing the fingerless gloves that came in the gift bag. I told her she should purchase a Halloween Millionaire Raffle ticket or two since she’ll soon be adding to her family. Wouldn’t it be a great way to usher in a new baby?  With over 8,000 prizes available, her odds of winning something are pretty good. Besides, tickets are only $20 each.

Tickets went on sale September 18th and are available at lottery retailers and also at a variety of special events. Halloween Raffle Events are being held around the Chicagoland area where the Illinois Lottery team will be on site promoting and selling raffle tickets.

Inside the Illinois Lottery gift bag is a plastic phone protector. I need one of these when I run in the rain (because rain and snow don’t keep an avid runner from heading outside to catch a few miles).  Bridget’s also wearing a pair of sunglasses that were included in the gift pack.

There are lots of goodies in the gift pack, like a BlueRAIN Wireless Bluetooth speaker, a portable phone charger, 2 pairs of sunglasses, fingerless gloves, a winter cap, bottle opener, and touch gloves for smartphones.

The gift pack also includes a couple of games to win money prizes.

Bridget is demonstrating the touch gloves for smartphones in this photo. I LOVE these gloves!  I hate having to remove my gloves in the winter just to answer my phone. These gloves solve that problem!

She decided to take a photo of herself wearing the sunglasses and cap from the gift pack.

If you want to enter to win your own gift pack from the Illinois Lottery, simply leave a comment below stating what you’d do with your earnings if you win. The winner will be chosen this Friday, October 23rd.

And don’t forget to buy your Illinois Lottery Halloween Millionaire Raffle tickets before November 1st when the drawing for the winners will be held. You can find where to buy tickets using the retail locator. Winning raffle ticket numbers will be available on the Millionaire Raffle results web page shortly after the drawing. Wishing you all good luck!
