The way to buy through a bus is the most common among those who buy in the Gordo de Fin de Año, assured Berois, adding that more than half of the tickets are later sold in this modality.

In a collective organized by an agency, the price does not usually exceed $300 so that most people can participate.

“We already have agencies that have asked us for more numbers because they have run out“Berois said, adding that sales are expected to increase in the last 15 days with the start of advertising in traditional media.
