Cumberland County woman ‘overjoyed’ at surprise $133,315 jackpot

When Kemisha Vandunk of Spring Lake arrived in Raleigh to claim her lottery winnings, she had no idea she just won a $133,315 Cash 5 jackpot.

“When we got here and they told us how much it was, I was overjoyed,” she said. “I thought I won maybe $1,000.”

Vandunk said her Monday morning started in a typical way when she went to the Short Stop on Anderson Ponds Drive in Spring Lake to buy a coffee and a $1 Quick Pick ticket.

“It was just like any normal day and then boom,” Vandunk laughed.

She split Monday’s $266,630 Cash 5 jackpot with a winning ticket from Online Play in Fairview. The odds of matching numbers on all five balls playing Cash 5 are 1 in 962,598.

“I’ve got the shakes,” Vandunk said. “I am stoked right now.”

She arrived at lottery headquarters Tuesday to collect her prize and, after required state and federal tax withholdings, took home $95,321.

Vandunk said she will put some of her winnings toward retirement and use some for her family’s trucking business.

“This will definitely help,” she said.

Cash 5 is one of six lottery games in North Carolina where players have the option of buying their tickets at a retail location or with Online Play through the lottery’s website or the NC Lottery Official Mobile App. Wednesday’s Cash 5 jackpot stands at $110,000.

Check out the video below of Vandunk talking about her big win.

Congratulations and many Blessings!!!! NCEL questions for you on the Pick 3. 50/50 plays exact 6-way number payout was $290 and 3-way payout was $330...now regardless which way the payout is $250. When and why the amount change?NC Lottery
Hi, Ellyn! The payout for 50/50 plays is still $330 for a 3-way match, and $290 for a 6-way match. The base amount for the 50/50 Exact matches are $250, but when you match Exact with 50/50, you also win the Any prize - for 3-way, that's an extra $80, and for 6-way, that's an extra $40. You can find the prize structure on our website here: https://nclottery.com/pick3-how-to-play.
