A Washington woman bought a lottery ticket from a vending machine but didn't realize until months later that it was a $135,000 winner.

All Publix supermarkets offer lottery terminal games, scratch and most have a vending machine that sells scratch and QPs. WinnDixie supermarkets also offer a lottery terminal and scratch, no vending machine. Enjoy your visit to this side of the Mason Dixon Line. BobP Not all angels have wings, some have whiskers.

Maryland: 4/1 - 4/30/2024Reply
All the stores by me that I go to have one terminal. I've only seen a couple of places with a vending machine. Now I have seen the same couple of people buy $150+ worth of numbers with no slips.

Accidental lottery ticket purchase nets Maryland couple $2 million in PowerballReply
