Sometimes it can be hard to make ends meet, and the New York Lottery 'Pay Me' campaign seems to completely understand this constant dilemma.

Each of the ads feature a different profession, like a paramedic who doubles as an ice cream truck man and a dentist who gives a tooth cleaning while also [tattooing his patient's leg](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/cookies-tattoo). The ads are accompanied by the copy "Get an extra payday without the extra job."

Humorous and definitely relatable, the New York Lottery 'Pay Me' Campaign may make you want to enter the next big draw.
