Whatever you're doing in Mexico, with any luck you'll find a lottery-ticket seller nearby if you need one. The vendors are assiduous agents of fate. If it's your destiny to win, they make sure you have every chance. They'll repeat the numbers tirelessly so that you won't risk missing your lucky one. For an outlay of 3 pesos (24 cents U.S.) your prize could be 10,000 times that amount; which gives a winning ring of conviction to the sales talk.
