COLUMBIA, SC (January 5, 2024) – Waiting at the car wash, a Myrtle Beach man scratched a lottery ticket and won $200,000.
“When I saw how much I won, my eyes teared up,” the winner told South Carolina Education Lottery officials.
It was a $5 ticket he picked out at the 365 Stores LLC at 4570 Socastee Blvd. in Myrtle Beach on his way to get his car washed that won him the windfall.
“I haven’t spent much of it yet,” he said. “I want to do something for my children.”
For selling the claimed ticket, 365 Stores LLC in Myrtle Beach received a commission of $2,000.
One top prize of $200,000 remains in the 5 Spot game at odds of 1 in 660,000.
