Little Rock, AR. – A lucky Gassville resident recently proved she could win big with a $3
instant ticket. J. Miller won $75,000 playing 10X® Cashword, a $3 instant game. She claimed her prize at the Arkansas Scholarship Lo ery (ASL) Claim Center on Aug. 19.
The winning ticket was sold at GJ Gas N Go LLC, located at 728 E. Main St. in Gassville.
For Miller, lo ery luck runs in the family. Recently, her mother won $20 on another scratch-off game and gifted her winnings to Miller.
While both play the lo ery regularly, they have different approaches: Miller prefers lower-priced tickets, but her mother enjoys higher-priced games, in hopes of a bigger payout.
Despite her mom’s sketicism, Miller believed her favorite $3 ckets had poten al for massive
wins. “I’m going to show you, Mom!” she thought. “I’m going to win big!” Using the $20 gift, Miller purchased six 10X Cashword games and scratched them off at home.
To her surprise, the last cket held the eleven words needed to win a $75,000 top prize.
“You’ve got to be kidding me,” Miller thought. “I mean… me?”
To be sure, she copied each word onto a separate sheet of paper to confirm her win. S ll in
disbelief, Miller s ll sought a second opinion from the clerk at her lo ery retailer.
“Oh, you won big!” the clerk confirmed.
The lucky winner rushed to share the news with her mother. Unable to reach her, Miller instead sent her brother a photo of the cket and the word list. Ini ally skep cal, he later celebrated Miller’s win in the ASL Claim Center.
Miller plans to replace her mom’s roof and build a walk-in shower with her winnings.
