Smithsburg, MD – An unexpected windfall has come to a Washington County woman who turned a spare $20 into a $100,000 scratch-off lottery win.
The woman, who isn’t a frequent player, decided to buy a couple of scratch-offs when she found herself with an extra $20. Among her purchases was a Gold Rush 7s Multiplier game, which she bought at AC&T on Jefferson Boulevard in Smithsburg. The $10 ticket proved to be extraordinarily lucky, revealing a $100,000 top prize. The win came as a surprise during a routine stop along her usual route.
The lucky player was in disbelief as she scratched off the winning number 15, uncovering the massive prize. For now, she plans to save her winnings, adding a substantial boost to her savings account. Additionally, the store where she bought her ticket will receive a $1,000 bonus from the Lottery for selling the top-prize scratch-off.
