Glazer wins Buehler’s shopping spree
COSHOCTON – When Lisa Glazer bought tickets for the Riverside Towers fundraiser, she never imagined she’d have the winning ticket.
“When I bought these tickets, I never thought that I would win,” she said. “I thought I was just donating to a good cause.”
But to Glazer’s surprise, she had won a 90-second shopping spree in Buehler’s this morning, Feb. 28 at 7 a.m. There were terms and conditions to her prize. She could only buy two of one item, no medications, alcohol, tobacco, hardware items, lottery tickets, or gift cards.
“I have a plan,” she said. “I’m going to try to get meat, laundry detergent, and dog food.”
Glazer came with plenty of emotional support. Her aunt, Connie Allen, came to cheer on her niece, as well as Carol Madison, who sold her the winning ticket, and Dan Relic, secretary of Riverside Towers
When her 90 seconds started, Glazer took off toward the meat section, getting two each of three different types of meat, shot over to grab two tubs of laundry detergent, and finished her time with two large bags of dog food.
“I got everything that I wanted,” Glazer said as she loaded up the conveyer belt with her goods.
Riverside Towers raised more than $700 for its fundraiser. Glazer spent a total of $367.66 for her groceries, which leaves more than $300 for Riverside Towers.
The next fundraiser for Riverside Towers is a breakfast on Saturday, March 16 from 8 a.m. – 2 p.m. in the Community Room at the facility. A donation of $6 for adults and $3 for children is asked. Breakfast will include pancakes, eggs, sausage or ham, breakfast muffins, coffee, juice, and milk.
