COLUMBIA, SC (July 21, 2023) – A Lowcountry woman’s spur of the moment decision to buy a lottery ticket won her $300,000.

“I’m not a lottery player,” the winner admitted.  “But I saw the tickets in the store and thought of my dad who plays the Lottery. So, I tried one. And boom, there it was.”

She says scratching off a top prize win on a ticket brought at the S & R Plus store on Hwy. 162 in Hollywood made her feel like “a kid in a candy store.” And her dad was happy for her too when he found out she won big.

“It gives me a fresh start,” she said. “I’ll play again.”

Four more top prizes of $300,000 remain in the ($10) $300,000 Bonus Scratch game at odds of 1 in 960,000.

S & R Plus in Hollywood received a commission of $3,000 for selling the claimed ticket.
