Fayetteville woman wants to help out her family after $150,000 win

Celma Marshall of Fayetteville said she couldn’t believe her luck after a $5 scratch-off turned into a $150,000 top prize.

“I really want to help my family out now,” Marshall said.

Marshall bought her Mystery Prize Cashword ticket from 365 Fast Mart on Bunce Road in Fayetteville.

“I’m just so happy I can’t even believe it,” Marshall said. “I’m trying not to cry.”

Marshall collected her prize at lottery headquarters Thursday and, after required state and federal tax withholdings, took home $106,516.

“I never thought I’d win anything like this in my life,” Marshall said.

Mystery Prize Cashword debuted in September 2021 with six $150,000 prizes. Marshall won the last $150,000 prize in the game.

I just wanted to ask a question. Is the lottery ever going to disburse scratch offs evenly throughout the state? It seems all the big winners are in the cities and barely ever in small towns. How do the ship them in order to give everyone a fair shot ?NC Lottery
Hi, Courtney! During the secure printing process, winning tickets are distributed at random across the state throughout the entire printing run of each game. Then they're divided up into packs and the inventory is stored securely before being distributed to retailers by the lottery's sales staff. Where a winning ticket might show up is a complete mystery until a lucky player scratches one off!
