A pair of winning jackpot tickets have now come to the same househod after a woman won $50,000 playing a Ca$h Plu$ scratch-off ticket just three years after her daughter won a $100,000 Lottery prize.
"She was like, ‘Mom, stop lying,’” the woman, who lives with her equally lucky daughter, mused, though she says that they didn't believe her at first.
However, she did win the five-figure prize, which the 75 year old declared as the largest Lottery win she's enjoyed, by continually trying out new games, which resulted in the cash windfall.
According to Lottery officials, the Baltimore resident "followed her routine and bought a few Ca$h Plu$ scratch-offs at Bermuda Bar & Liquor" and won a nice $50 prize to start.
The final ticket had a few more zeros after the five.
She said that she scratched off the final ticket, which revealed a matching number and a $50,000 win, though she had to do a double take initially.
The winner said she was reticent to believe her luck, but after scanning the game's prize check area with the Lottery app, she confirmed the win, and was able to make the call to her daughter.
According to the winner, there are no plans for the prize yet, as she wants to wait until she has the check in hand and cash in the bank before weighing her options.
