COLUMBIA, SC (March 27, 2026) – A $30,000 win on a $2 scratch-off had a Dillon man pinching himself.
“I’ve never won anything like that before,” he told South Carolina Education Lottery officials. “It was a once-in-a-lifetime event.”
He says he was filling up his car at the Tiger Mart #1 on Hwy. 301 N. in Dillon when he decided to take a chance on a few lottery tickets. He says he bought the last three Triple 333 scratch-offs in the store’s lottery display. One of them surprised him with a top prize win.
Now he’s thinking about buying a new car.
Odds of winning $30,000 in the Lottery’s Triple 333 game are 1 in 576,000. Three more top prizes remain in the game.
Tiger Mart #1 in Dillon received a commission of $300 for selling the claimed ticket.
