March 28 (UPI) — An unidentified woman from South Carolina took advice from her mother and won $30,000 from a scratch-off lottery ticket.
The woman told lottery officials that she felt lucky, but wasn’t sure if she wanted to purchase a lottery ticket until she spoke with her mother.
“My mom said to go ahead and try your luck,” the woman said.
The woman purchased a $2 Cash Drop ticket from a Quickway located in Greenwood, S.C. The odds of winning the grand prize of $30,000 from the ticket are 1 in 432,000.
One Cash Drop ticket that is also worth $30,000 still remains.
The woman said that is currently looking for a house after winning the grand prize.
Recently, a woman from Virginia won $100,000 from a scratch-off lottery ticket after she stopped at a store to pick up headache medicine.
