A single
mother of four, who accidentally purchased an extra California Lottery ticket
from a lottery vending machine, got the surprise of her life when her $1 overspend netted her a $14 million win.
The lucky
mum, who has yet to be identified, usually spends $4 on Powerball tickets and
one Super Lotto ticket, but accidentally dropped an extra dollar into the
machine. When she scanned her extra
ticket and realized how profitable her mistake had been she was so excited she
ran out of the store in hysterics.
She now
plans to buy a new house and spend some of the money on travel.
