GREAT MILLS, MD – An Anne Arundel County woman recently won $30,000 in a Diamond Bingo scratch-off game.
While gas-up shopping at Sheetz #318 in Great Mills, the 36-year-old and her husband noticed a glimmer of Diamond Bingo instant tickets. She purchased two of the $3 games and returned to her car to play them. She was surprised to receive a $30,000 prize on one of the scratch-offs.
“I wasn’t sure it was a winner, so my husband scanned it for me,” said the lucky player. “We were so excited when it showed a $30,000 prize.”
After hiding the lucky instant ticket, the factory worker and her husband planned to claim the prize. She and her husband visited Lottery headquarters this week to claim her prize.
According to Lottery officials, the Glen Burnie couple, who have a daughter, will use the winnings toward a down payment on a new home.
The Lottery will also provide a $300 bonus to Sheetz #318 at 20760 Old Great Mills Road in Great Mills in recognition of the sale of a $30,000 top-prize winning scratch-off ticket.
