Annie Hart of Jacksonville stopped at Walmart on Western Boulevard in Jacksonville on Tuesday while on her way home from running errands and purchased two sets of scratch-off tickets, according to the North Carolina Education Lottery press release. Later that afternoon, once she was back home, she decided to scratch her tickets. After winning $40 on one ticket, she moved on to her lucky $25 Extreme Cash ticket.
“I looked at it and I was like, ’Wait a minute,” Hart said via the release. “I couldn’t believe my eyes. I was like, ‘Hmm, I won $100.’ Then I looked at it again and I said, ‘That’s more than $100!’”
Hart, who worked in food services at Camp Lejeune for 37 years, claimed her prize at lottery headquarters in Raleigh on Wednesday, according to the release. After federal and state tax withholdings, she took home $70,757.
“I just couldn’t believe it,” said Hart. “I still can’t believe it. It’s just amazing.”
With her winnings, Hart hopes to purchase her first home. “I’m hoping I can find me a house and buy it,” she said via the press release. “I used to pray that I could win some money and buy something of my own instead of paying rent all the time.”
