COLUMBIA, SC (November 12, 2024) – After work, a North Augusta couple was scratching a few lottery tickets when one delivered a $300,000 payday. Now they are thinking about retirement.
“My husband is always pulling my leg,” said the wife. “When he showed me the ticket, I thought he was joking.”
“There are not enough words to describe how it felt to win,” she said.
The couple, who occasionally buy tickets on the way home from work, picked out the winning $10 scratch-off at the Circle K on Edgefield Rd.
While they feel forever changed by the windfall, one thing has remained the same.
“I’m still clipping coupons,” the wife said, saving even more for retirement.
The odds of winning $300,000 playing Wild Cash Multiplier Extra Play are 1 in 740,000. One more top prize remains in the game.
Circle K Stores #3172 in North Augusta received a commission of $3,000 for selling the claimed ticket.
