The Third Time’s the Charm – a $3,000,000 Charm!
TRENTON (March 25, 2022) – Coffee, a muffin, and a Scratch-Off ticket worth $50 is how our latest lucky lottery player started his day. Pleasantly surprised by the winning ticket, he decided to see if his bright spring day could get any brighter and bought one more ticket. He scratched away and doubled the previous prize; the second ticket was a $100 winner!
With a smile on his face and cash in his hand, our lucky player went about his day. He finished his breakfast, sipped his coffee, and went for a fresh haircut. Later that day, he stopped by the liquor store while running errands and decided, “Why not? I’m on a lucky streak…” grabbing just one more ticket: $3,000,000 Ultimate Riches. Having already had his fill of slowly scratching and uncovering numbers for the day, he opted to just scratch the barcode on the ticket and scan it.
He swiped the ticket under the scanner and read the resulting readout: See clerk. The clerk checked the ticket as well and told our winner that he had a big prize on the ticket! The winner hastily scratched the ticket and was overjoyed to see what he thought was a $300,000 prize, only to find out a moment later that the actual prize was 10X the amount - $3,000,000!
The lucky ticket was purchased at Rancocas Wine and Spirits, 315 Rancocas Rd., Mounty Holly in Burlington County. This serendipitous spring day brought our lucky player’s total winnings to $3,000,150!
