COLUMBIA, SC (February 12, 2026) – An Upstate lottery winner is using his $75,000 prize to thank his mom.
“I’m buying her a car,” the winner told South Carolina Education Lottery officials.
He says he won the money for the gift on a $3 scratch-off he got at the High Volume convenience store on Pearman Dairy Rd. in Anderson.
“It feels great,” he said of the big win.
The odds of winning $75,000 playing Loteria are 1 in 660,000. Two more top prizes remain in the game.
High Volume in Anderson received a commission of $750 for selling the claimed ticket.
