ANNAPOLIS, MD – A 53-year-old nursing assistant from Annapolis is one step closer to achieving her dream of a new home, thanks to a recent lottery win. The lucky winner secured a $30,000 top prize on her favorite scratch-off game, Bonus Crossword.
After a long shift, the Annapolis resident made a pit stop at Chesapeake Market Citgo to purchase some scratch-offs and other items. Among her purchases were a Bingo scratch-off and two Bonus Crossword tickets. While the first two tickets failed to yield any winnings, the third ticket brought an overwhelming wave of joy.
“I swear my heart stopped for a moment,” the winner shared, still in a state of disbelief.
With her newfound fortune, she has set her sights on saving money for a future relocation to Alabama, where she hopes to be closer to her family. Additionally, she plans to allocate some of her winnings towards paying off bills.
The Chesapeake Market Citgo, located at 502 South Cherry Grove in Annapolis, played a significant role in this life-changing win. As a token of appreciation for selling the winning $30,000 top-prize scratch-off, the Anne Arundel County retailer will receive a $500 bonus from the Lottery.
The Bonus Crossword 5th Edition game, which made its debut on February 20, 2023, still has four unclaimed top prizes remaining.
