Jessie Summers of Sanford tried her luck on a $1 Cash 5 ticket and won $265,440.

Summers’ lucky ticket came from the Circle K on Spring Lane in Sanford. Her ticket matched all five numbers in the Dec. 24 drawing.

Summers arrived at lottery headquarters on Tuesday to collect her prize and, after required state and federal tax withholdings, took home $188,489.

Cash 5 is one of four lottery games in North Carolina where players have the option of buying their tickets through Online Play, either through the lottery’s website or with the NC Lottery Official Mobile App. Cash 5 tickets are $1 and drawings are held every night.
