Eastern Shore Woman Plans to Buy New Car with $50,000 Scratch-Off Prize

A Somerset County woman took the long drive to Lottery headquarters on Oct. 14 to claim a $50,000 prize on the $10 Double Your Money scratch-off.

The Eastern Shore woman recently stopped by the Royal Farms at 30452 Mt. Vernon Road in Princess Anne, and with $10 to spare, she randomly selected the Double Your Money scratch-off.

She scratched her ticket while still inside the store. Her ticket had 20 matching numbers with amounts ranging from $500 to $10,000, totaling $50,000. The lucky lady was able to stay calm and keep the win to herself while in the store.

Eventually, she shared the news with family and friends. So far, the retailer worker’s only plan is to buy a new car. When not working, she enjoys spending her time cooking and sewing.

The Double Your Money scratch-off launched in July. The ticket still has nine $100,000 top prizes, one $50,000 prize and hundreds of thousands of prizes from $20 to $10,000 remaining.
