Double delight for Delaware woman winning two lottery within one month

A 70-year-old woman from Delaware hit the lottery twice within one week, claiming two six-figure rewards totaling $400,000.

The News Journal reports that the Newark woman, who wished to remain anonymous, bought two $100K Ultimate Cash Instant Game tickets and found that one was a winner.

While driving home after picking up her earnings from Lottery Headquarters in Dover with a friend, she bought three Serious Money tickets to celebrate. One of those tickets was a $300,000 top prize winner.

“My best friend was the first person I told about winning the $100,000 top prize, and she came with me to claim it,” the woman said in a Delaware Lottery statement.

“When I scratched the $300,000 winning Serious Money ticket later in the day, we just sat there in disbelief.

It was absolute insanity.”
