Newark Woman Wins Two Delaware Lottery Six-Figure Prizes In One Day
Newark Woman Wins Two Delaware Lottery Six-Figure Prizes In One Day
A 70-year-old woman from Newark, who wishes to remain anonymous, won $100,000 after scratching two $100K Ultimate Cash game tickets. The winning ticket was purchased at Speedy Gas in Newark. Nearly a week later, the woman visited Lottery Headquarters to claim her prize.
But, her luck did not stop there! On her way from claiming her original prize, she decided to make a stop at Tiger Mart in Dover. And it’s a good thing she did. After purchasing three more tickets, this time SERIOUS Money tickets, she won again. Much to her surprise, one of the tickets was a $300,000 top prize winner.
WHAT???
“My best friend was the first person I told about winning the $100,000 top prize, and she came with me to claim it,” the woman told Delaware Lottery. “When I scratched the $300,000 winning SERIOUS MONEY ticket later in the day, we just sat there in disbelief. It was absolute insanity.”
Along with her best friend, the Newark woman returned to Lottery Headquarters once again to claim her winnings. This takes her total winnings to $400,000.
The Newark woman tells Delaware Lottery she plans to put most of the prize money into her retirement fund. When asked if there was anything else she wanted to share about her win, the woman said, “Just that I love scratching Instant Game tickets!”
Well, that goes without saying! Talk about luck.
