Peterson, who is from  Coeur d’Alene, said that she stopped at the Albertsons store in Hayden on Friday morning and decided to buy some scratch-off lottery tickets.

Little did she know what future was holding for her.

Recalling the moment, she said:

I had bought some tickets already, then had $20 left over, so I thought what the heck, I’ll get a Grand Fortune ticket. When I scanned the ticket, it said I had to contact the Idaho Lottery for my winnings. That had never happened before when I was playing. I checked it and it was a $200,000 winner. I couldn’t believe it.

The next day, she got to buy again.

Peterson said that she stopped at the Fred Meyer store in Coeur d’Alena and bought a Comin’In Hot Scratch-Off ticket.

Well, she won again.

She continued:

When I scanned it and said I had to claim it at the lottery, I thought maybe it was $1,000. I never imagined it would be $300,000 and that it happened again. The next day!

The woman went to the lottery headquarters to collect the money.

She won $500,000 in total!

The woman will be using the money to pay off bills, buy a new truck for herself, and go on a vacation in Las Vegas.

The authorities said that Peterson beat estimated odds of 1 in 282.5 million to win the lottery 2 times in the span of 2 days!
