Yes, lucky and smart lady. When the Scratchers I want to buy are sold out, I choose a different game, hope this happens to all of us one day.

It really does boil down to:

Right place, right time. 1 minute before or 1 minute after, it would probably be a different story.

Right place, right time.

Right place, wrong time.

This pretty much says everything about winning the lottery and life itself. Congrats to her.

I cannot help but wonder which ticket in her sequence of 4 was the winner.? Was it the first one, the last one or one of the 2 in between. Whenever I buy 4 tickets I am always tempted to buy 5. Whenever I buy 2, I am tempted to buy 3. She bought 4. If by chance the 4th ticket was the winner that is outstanding. A lot of the $5 ticket odds are 1 in 4.......she played the odds and came up with a pot of cash.
