S.C. woman wins Powerball jackpot worth $200,000

A lucky woman from South Carolina asked a South Carolina clerk to check her old lottery ticket and discovered that she won Powerball jackpot worth $200k.

The winning ticket was sold at a Speedway gas station in Greenville. The ticket distributor will get a bonus of $2,000 for selling the winning scratch-Off ticket. 

She was trying her luck on a new Powerball ticket when she reportedly asked a worker to take a look at an older one.

The woman beat 1-in-913,129 odds to win $50,000 in an Oct. 24 drawing. She paid an extra $1 for her ticket, allowing the prize to grow to $200,000.

She recently claimed her winning amount from the lottery headquarters and took home $138,000 after state and federal taxes. 

Drawings are held every Monday, Wednesday and Saturday evening at 10:59 p.m.
