COLUMBIA, SC (December 13, 2022) – A Midland’s woman’s $300,000 lottery win isn’t burning a hole in her pocket. A month has passed, and she hasn’t spent a cent of her winnings.

“I’m still in shock,” she confessed to South Carolina Education Lottery officials this week.

She won the cash on a $10 scratch-off purchased from the Circle K on 1019 S. Lake Dr. in Lexington, and says she’s been living a normal life ever since. Well, almost normal.

“I’m dreaming of ways to spend it,” she said.

The winner overcame odds of 1 in 900,000 to win $300,000 in the Ultimate Riches game. Three more top prizes remain on the ticket.

Circle K Stores Inc #3254 in Lexington received a commission of $3,000 for selling the claimed ticket.
