Wilson insists she just likes playing scratch-off lottery games. ⦠and going to thrift stores.
While she usually plays the $2, $3 or $5 games, on a whim, she purchased a $10 scratch-off ticket at Butler One Stop.
To Wilsonâs surprise, she won the top prize of $250,000 in the Platinum Payout game.
She made a believer of her husband, Michael.
âMy husband always said, âYouâre wasting money.â I never took money away from anything, just my extra money,â she explained. âI like playing. Itâs something you can do by yourself.
âI almost never buy a $10 ticket. I stood at the counter and rubbed it off and seen that, and thought, âThatâs not right.ââ
