A persistent Waldorf woman’s dedication to scratch-off lottery games paid off when she won $50,000 on the Big Money game, a win she described with disbelief.

The 57-year-old federal worker and Charles County resident said, “I had to scan it two to three times just to make sure.

I didn’t think it was real,” after scanning her ticket immediately after purchase.

Despite not having a favorite, the woman’s loyalty to newer scratch-off games finally saw a fruitful return.

The winning ticket was purchased at Keller’s Market, 15624 Livingston Road in Accokeek.

For their part in selling the winning ticket, the Prince George’s County store will be rewarded with a $500 bonus. As for the winnings, the woman plans to use the $50,000 prize towards paying off bills.

She intends to continue playing the scratch-off games, hopeful for another win.

“Hopefully, I can win again and get closer to retirement,” she said.
