the revival of the old ones.

Armenia. `Half of the people are unemployed. Whenever they find money,
they buy a ticket hoping that they will win something', says a
50-year-old seller and confesses that sometimes he buys tickets
too. Pensioners too buy tickets at least once a month. They usually do
it on the day they get their pension.

lotteries were is great demand after which they all gradually faded
away. Today, according to the sellers, instant lottery tickets are
widely used.
