Woman Finds $1 Million Winning Lottery Ticket in Her Purse


Got a lot of clutter? Here’s a good reason to Marie Kondo your life — and purse.

Last month, a woman made a spur-of-the-moment decision to buy a Lucky Day Lotto ticket while shopping for groceries in Elmhurst, Illinois. She bought the ticket, stuck it in her purse, and promptly forgot it existed, per CNN.

On October 20, the winning numbers were revealed: 2-3-24-25-28. The woman (who has chosen to remain anonymous) had those numbers but didn’t know it.

“A couple days after the drawing, I saw the ticket in my purse and opened my lottery app to scan my ticket and check if it was a winner. I immediately saw $1,000,000 on the screen and I was in total shock,” she told lottery officials. “I scanned the ticket one more time to double-check, and when it showed “$1,000,000″ again, I instantly started crying.”

She said she plans to travel with her winnings.
