In response to inflation, the prizes at Bingo have changed in recent weeks at the Millersville Senior Center in Millersville, Pennsylvania.
Instead of fun little trinkets, winning bingo players now choose between cleaning supplies, laundry items, and snacks, depending on the theme of the week, Senior Center Director Starr Brubaker told The Epoch Times.
Dryer sheets and bottles of detergent are practical items that help defray the growing cost of living. Seniors there say they’re happy to win such prizes because they’re feeling inflation in all areas of their lives, and they’re worried they won’t have enough money to get by in the future.
One senior at the center said her husband is at retirement age, but he’s not retiring yet because they fear it will be difficult to keep up with inflation.
