Helen Holley of Robersonville tried her luck on a $30 scratch-off ticket and won a $1 million prize.

Holley bought her lucky $10,000,000 Colossal Cash ticket from the Circle K on Horner Boulevard in Sanford.

When Holley arrived at lottery headquarters, she had a decision to make. She could choose to receive his prize as an annuity of $50,000 over 20 years or a lump sum of $600,000. She chose the lump-sum amount of $600,000 and, after required state and federal tax withholdings, took home $426,069.

2 winners near Raleigh again. Leaves a bitter taste in your mouth. Yes I know its luck and whatever but really look at how many from the Raleigh area side of NC.NC Lottery
Hey there, Mary! Anywhere there are more chances being taken to win—for example Raleigh or Charlotte—the odds will play out more often there over time. You'll have a larger volume of both winning and non-winning tickets in proportion with the odds. That has no effect on the likelihood of a particular ticket winning or not winning a prize, whether it be in a big city or a small town. It has to be that way in order for the lottery to be fair to everyone.
