When Pierre Richer went into a Montreal grocery store for a crucial ingredient for apple pie,

当皮埃尔·里奇走进蒙特利尔的一家杂货店购买苹果派的关键原料时,
he had no idea it would turn into this much dough.
他不会知道会变成这么多钱。
"My daughter went in to go get the pie crust, and I bought the ticket.
“我女儿进去买了派的皮,我买了彩票。
So without the pie crust being on sale, I wouldn't have went to Super C."
所以如果不是派的皮在打折,我也不会去超级C杂货店。”
While he has been playing the lottery for decades, he says he wasn't planning to buy a ticket for last Friday's $50 million draw.
虽然里奇已经玩了几十年的彩票,但他说自己一开始没有打算上周五买那张最终中了5000万美元的彩票的。
"I went to play them and I asked for two Lotto Max at the counter and that's what happened. It cost me $10."
“我去柜台那边买了两张乐透,这就是当时的情况。总共花了我10美元。”

"I just can't leave them alone in the dark, because without me there, the shipping department is not feasible."
“我不能把同事们留在黑暗中,因为没我在那里,运输部门会有问题的。”
Even in his 60s, he says he isn't retiring just yet, but does have a couple of purchases in mind.
