LaQuedra Edwards put $ 40 into a lottery ticket device at a supermarket in Los Angeles and was ready to sort out the ticket with his favorite scratch before anyone slammed it.
A rude man collided with her, pushed her and she inadvertently typed the wrong number. For this reason, a $ 30 ticket came out instead of the preferred, more expensive ticket.
"He just slammed into me, said nothing and walked out the door," LaQuedra told the California State Lottery, CNN reports.
The $ 30 200X Scratcher ticket - for which she was initially irritated by the fact that she had spent most of her money on a ticket she did not even want - turned out to be auspicious.
After scratching the unwanted ticket, he discovered that he had won the top prize: $ 10 million. "I'm still in shock," Edwards said. "All I remember saying as soon as I found out how much I earned was, 'I'm rich!'
She is planning to use the prize money to buy a house and set up a non-profit organization. Maybe she should give something to the rude husband too, but she knows the job herself.
