COLUMBIA, SC (February 7, 2025) – A Lowcountry lottery winner has made her first big purchase, a new home.
The down payment was possible after she won $500,000 on a scratch-off.
She says her luck changed on a $10 ticket she purchased at the Publix on Folly Rd. in Charleston.
“It was a blessing,” the winner told South Carolina Education Lottery officials.
Odds of winning $500,000 in the Cash King game are 1 in 1,500,000. One top prize remains in the game.
The Publix Super Markets Inc. #1645 in Charleston received a commission of $5,000 for selling the claimed ticket.
