Lucky Break: Rockwell Woman Wins $200,000 on Scratch-Off Ticket

North Carolina Woman Wins $200,000 on $5 Scratch-Off Ticket

Brittany Brewer of Rockwell recently turned an ordinary workday into an unforgettable moment after winning $200,000 from a $5 MONOPOLY® scratch-off ticket she bought at her workplace in Kannapolis.

At first, the news didn’t feel real.

“I had to double-check the ticket,” Brewer shared. “I just wanted to be sure it was legit.”

Once it sank in, disbelief quickly turned into pure excitement.

“I was ecstatic,” she said.


From Shock to Celebration

The winning ticket was sold at Little Buck Food Mart on North Cannon Boulevard, where Brewer works. Even after visiting lottery headquarters and collecting her check, the moment still felt unreal.

“It still doesn’t feel real,” she admitted.

After state and federal taxes, Brewer took home $144,021—a life-changing amount for her and her family.


Putting Family First

Rather than splurging, Brewer has clear plans for her prize:

  • ? Investing in her son’s college fund

  • ?? Supporting her church

  • ????? Securing her family’s future

“My main goal is my son’s education,” she said. “I want to make sure he’s set for the future.”


About the Winning Game

 

The $5 MONOPOLY® scratch-off game launched in November and originally offered five top prizes of $200,000. After Brewer’s big win, three top prizes are still up for grabs, keeping excitement high for players across the state.
