Even though this Canadian lottery had the worst odds, this website you are reading was inspired in part by this lottery. The gang at LotterySquirrel.com were loyal SUPER 7 players. The tickets cost $2.00 for one line and included 2 bonus lines, giving players 3 chances which made the net cost per line $0.666.
The Lottery Charms Story / LotterySquirrel.com
In April 2002, I was cleaning up my desk in my office and I had a few lottery tickets attached to a filing cabinet using a couple of White Squirrel magnets. This was so they would not get lost or go through my new shredder. Following the draw, I checked the tickets and found the ticket paid out $147.60 for 5 out of 7 numbers (SUPER 7).
In May, the White Squirrel pins I designed came in and I started wearing one of them. Once again I just attached my lottery ticket to a filing cabinet with a White Squirrel magnet. On May 4, 2002 I checked my ticket on-line to find out I had 6 out of 7 numbers on the Canada’s 7/ 47 lottery draw of May 3, 2002 (SUPER 7) paying $2,408.00 On May 4, 2002I was in Sarnia, Ontario taking some digital photographs for a customer and stopped by the Casino on the waterfront. I was wearing the White Squirrel pin as I played the 5 Cent slots. My winnings that day yielded $160.00. At this time, I left due to the excessive smoke from smokers. (I prefer to avoid these places due to the health risks of second hand smoke).
Some friends were making jokes about a horse shoe located somewhere in my body. After reviewing what was different we narrowed this to the White Squirrel Pins & Magnets.
On May 8, 2002 I was searching the Internet for domains to use for possibly marketing items of luck and registered LotteryCharms.com. This was set aside for future use.
Start of the 2-Year Wealth-Luck Action Plan
May 30, 2002 LotteryCharms.com was formalized as a trade-mark with the Canadian Intellectual Property Office. The time frame of 2 years was to allow for LotteryCharms.com to become a registered Trade-mark. The trade-mark was deemed necessary to prevent someone else from capitalizing on this idea when the BIG WIN materialized.
This decision was the catalyst for a 2 year wealth-luck action plan formulated on the belief that a series of small wins would eventually lead up to a big win, like tremors in advance of an earthquake. This would create demand for LotteryCharms.com items of luck because when you win big everyone wants a piece of you.
June 1, 2002 the web site LotteryCharms.com was completed to correspond with the official release of WhiteSquirrels.ca.
Many wins were achieved, with 2 notables wins.
On Christmas morning December 25, 2003, I checked my numbers to find out I won $1419.50 5 out 6 on Canada’s 6 / 49 lottery (one number off from $666,666,40)
On May 31, 2004 the goal of a planned win was achieved with the win of the GRAND PRIZE – Dream of a Lifetime Lottery – prize valued at over $775,00.00
Black Squirrel pins were worn daily and a Black Squirrel pin was used to attach the GRAND PRIZE Winning Ticket to a cork board. Also a White Squirrel pin with the pin back removed was carried in my wallet.
June 04, 2004
LotteryCharms.com was allowed to be registered as a Trade-mark in Canada. (6 days beyond the 2 year business plan – 5 days excluding the leap year- 4 days after the big win on May 31, 2004).
June 18, 2004
LotteryCharms.com was registered as a Trade-mark in Canada and was assigned the Trade-mark Number TMA613166
