COLUMBIA, SC (August 26, 2016) – With the laundry done and supper finished, a Swansea mother sat down in front of the television to rest and scratch lottery tickets.
She didn’t stay seated long.
“I got it!” she screamed. “I got it!”
She scratched off a $125,000 prize.
The winner told lottery officials that for fun she stopped at convenience stores she passed on her way home from work that day to buy tickets. A $5 Cash Funds ticket from the Exxon Gas Station on Church St. in Swansea was the big winner.
“And now I’m paying off my house,” she said.
Three top prizes of $125,000 remain in the Cash Funds game, at odds of 1 in 480,000.
Now that the prize is paid, the Exxon Gas Station in Swansea receives a $1,250 commission.
