ANNAPOLIS, MD – A timely reminder led an Annapolis woman to purchase a lottery ticket that turned out to be a $50,000 winner. The lucky winner, a private healthcare worker and a devoted mother, received an instant message reminding her to buy lottery tickets for her aunt. This nudge prompted her to buy a 50X The Cash scratch-off for herself at Chesapeake Market Citgo, located at 502 South Cherry Grove in Annapolis.
With $20 to spare and facing the decision between purchasing one $20 ticket or two $10 tickets, she chose to buy a single $10 50X The Cash ticket. Her choice paid off when she revealed a 50X symbol over $1,000, securing her the second-tier prize of $50,000.
The Anne Arundel County resident described feeling weak and pale, nearly passing out upon realizing her win. After confirming her prize with the store clerk, she went home to share the exciting news with her family, who were all thrilled.
The winner plans to use her winnings to purchase a car, adding a significant boost to her and her family’s life. When not working or indulging in lottery games, she cherishes spending time with her children, watching TV, and enjoying outdoor activities like hikes and bike rides.
