Wake County nurse excited for a “nice Christmas” after $100,000 win

After finishing up a nursing shift, Berra Sen of Holly Springs stopped at Walmart to do some Christmas shopping, tried her luck on a scratch-off, and uncovered a $100,000 gift.

“It will be a nice Christmas for sure with my children and grandchildren,” Sen said. “They are my world.”

Sen, a 60-year-old pediatric nurse, bought her lucky $20 Mega 7’s ticket Friday morning from the Walmart Supercenter on GB Alford Highway in Holly Springs.

“When I scratched it, I couldn’t believe it because my birthday is on the 19th and it matched 19 on the ticket,” she said. “I'm still in shock.”

Sen arrived at lottery headquarters Friday to collect her prize and, after required state and federal tax withholdings, took home $71,016.

She said she would use her winnings to pay some bills, put some in savings, and have a nice Christmas with her family.

Mega 7’s debuted in October with four $2 million prizes and eight $100,000 prizes. Three $2 million prizes and six $100,000 prizes remain to be claimed.
