Playing the Michigan Lottery is always going to allow folks to have a chance to score big. And we’ve got another great story to tell about a recent winner for you today. This time, we saw a final total of more than $169K. Not too shabby, huh?
Continue reading to hear about the story of Tammie Pelton, who turned a Daily Spin to Win free-play into a whopping $169,674.
Scoring The Pot
Tammie Pelton has long been playing these types of lottery games, so as she took her turn once more, it’s not like this was some crazy first-time thing. And we would soon be finding out that she earned herself a heck of a payday. The beauty of this whole thing is that it started out with Pelton using a bonus credit. From the get-go, this was completely done with house money.
And using said credit, she won $100 online. She now had a little more with which to gamble. She used some of that to come into some Powerball tickets. Because who doesn’t hope that one lucky day will turn out to be theirs and the one that tells their story. From purchasing her tickets, she glanced over at the numbers that now belonged to her and possessed her chance of coming out as a champion.
In addition to the Powerball, of course, she got several Fantasy 5 tickets. A short time later, she matched the numbers from that Fantasy 5 game to that of those on her ticket. And this winner was purchased on the Michigan Lottery. The host site itself was the site of the victory for the 52-year-old resident of Cheboygan.
What Happened After The Win
Logging into her account a few days later, Peloton saw just how much money was now in her account. With more than $169K coming in, she had to triple-check that this was legit. As soon as she confirmed that it was, in fact, real, she woke her husband up immediately. Both of them had a very hard time believing it was real, but boy, was it ever.
They don’t have any crazy plans for the winnings, but after visiting lottery headquarters and claiming the money, some trips will be in their future, as well as some investing. Being smart with it will allow them to best spend it to suit their own fancy.
