A message from the DirectorWhen customers walk through our doors we want them to feel special. There’s nothing like welcoming customers to our office to fill out a claim for a nice-sized prize.
We’ll often hear what brought them to us, how they chose the game they played, and their plans for having fun with their windfall. It’s always a pleasure to hear from them. Winners and customers walk through our doors every day.
Now, customers who come to any of our statewide offices can look at our brand-new winner display – our Ohio Lottery “Winner Wall.” Customers love to view photos of our winners. And, for customers coming to make a claim, after filling out the necessary paper work, we have some fun taking our winner’s photo. We’ll place their photo on our Winner Wall and give them a copy to take home and share with family and friends.
It’s all about hospitality – and that’s something you do each day with your customers. Thank you for making the Ohio Lottery playing experience a good one.
In this issue, you’ll want to read and post information about our latest instant ticket winners. Want to know who sold the biggest jackpots to date for Perfect Game 300 and Going Pro? We’ve got that as well. Share these fun facts with customers. We know they’ll take notice.
Pick 5 is our spotlight game this month. If you have customers looking for a draw game that’s just a little different than what they typically play, encourage them to give Pick 5 a try. It’s growing and there are many ways to play. Help players find the one way that’s right for them. It’s all part of the fun.
Have a happy and profitable month.
Sincerely,
Dennis Berg, DirectorThe Ohio Lottery

Pick 5: A special overview for customersEncourage customers to give Pick 5 a try. Clip and post this Pick 5 fact sheet for customers.
Learn more about Pick 5Want the simplest way to play? Put down $0.50 or $1 and choose five numbers from 0-9. Ask for a “straight” bet – that means the numbers you choose will pay when they are drawn in exact order.
Here are a few play-style options when you’re ready to learn more.
• A straight bet: When the numbers you’ve chosen are drawn in exact order, you win.• A boxed bet: If the numbers you’ve chosen are drawn in any order, you win.
Note: The number of possible combinations in a boxed bet varies, depending on the numbers you choose. You don’t need to know the number of combinations to play, but if you are interested, you’ll see that information on the bottom of your ticket: Here’s the scoop:
A back up bet. This is for players who want the best of both worlds – a straight and boxed bet combination. It costs $1 and this type of wager can be played in $1 increments.
If you’d like to try yet another way to play, you can play what’s called a pair bet:
There are six pair bet types you can choose:
You must use a bet card if you want to make a pair bet.

By Marie Kilbane Seckers, Communications
In August 2014, a fire in the laundry of TJ’s Grocerette turned the Rockford convenient store, gas station and restaurant upside down.
The telltale sign – steaming store windows – was noticed by an observant neighbor in the early morning hours Aug. 18, 2014. A container weighed down with used cleaning towels spontaneously caught on fire. The fire gutted the kitchen and hallway, and for three months, the store closed to repair the damage, clean and repaint. The owners, Joyce and Tom Oliver, reopened the business the day before Thanksgiving.
The event changed the way the Olivers, Lottery retailers, looked at their store. It also reinforced their commitment to the Rockford community. “People were happy to get the store open again and get back into their routine,” says Joyce. The employees -- there are 18 – stayed. And when an employee of the grocery store across the street and her family lost their house in a fire in early 2015, Joyce made sure she helped.
“I had to,” she says. “I understood what they were going through.”
The Olivers’ stake in the community began almost 29 years ago when the Indiana natives found a car dealership and service center for sale in Rockford, located off Route 33, about 18 miles from Decatur, Indiana. The Indiana-based small business owners decided to relocate and built TJ’s Grocerette from the ground up, running 24 hours a day, seven days a week. They brought in Lottery soon after in 1987, selling lotto and the current Lottery instant games. Times were different then, says Joyce. Today the business, which runs from 5 a.m. to 10 p.m., adequately serves the community’s needs.
“They’re always so nice,” says Lottery sales representative Greg Hiestand of the Olivers. “(They’re) very Lottery literate, smart small business people.”
As a draw for customers, the Lottery gives TJ’s Grocerette the opportunity to showcase its many offerings. There are many
more Lottery game choices now too, with Cashword and Bingo its most popular instant games. On the draw game side, customers seem to like Mega Millions, Powerball and Classic Lotto.
It can take a while for new employees to learn all the games, but once they do, they’re off and selling. Joyce says that Lottery games bring in a lot of customers.
Her response to retailers contemplating selling Lottery?
“I’d say ‘yes, do it,’’’ she says.
The Olivers believe in supporting their local community and its businesses. In the restaurant of TJ’s Grocerette, whether they’re serving fried chicken or homemade meatloaf, all their food is local and fresh, purchased at the grocery store across the street, she says.
In the aftermath of the fire, the Olivers have remodeled, with an interior theme dedicated to the Rossford community and its hometown heroes. On the walls, you’ll see pictures of local veterans, sporting events and other activities that have brought the Rockford community together over the years. If you look closely, you’ll even see a photo of resident Jordon Thompson, who signed with the Detroit Lions football team in 2014.
As a gesture of support, Rockford’s Parkway Local Schools is designing a special sign for TJ’s Grocerette:
“Welcome to TJ’s -- Small Town USA.”
Together, they all make Rockford special.
You can find TJ’s Grocerette on Facebook.
TJ’s Grocerette: back in business. “Whether it’s a Pick 3, Pick 4 or Mega Millions player, people like to come in and pick their own numbers,” says Joyce Oliver, owner of TJ’s Grocerette. The Lottery benefits her business by bringing traffic to the store, interesting customers in TJ’s various offerings. From left to right: TJ's Grocerette employees Dianne Poppe, owner Joyce Oliver, Charidy Elliott, Abby Hodge and Morgan Bruns.
