    Over the past 7 years my family has become friends with many of the local grocery store employees at Food Lion. Most are women and work their butts off. One of the ladies is about 60 years old and she is always on the overhead mic being positive and funny. Tonight she told my wife and her fellow co-workers she had won a significant amount of money from the lottery. One of her upcoming payments is around $150,000! I love it.

    Glad to hear when an honest, hardworking person wins the lottery.

    This.

    It makes you feel good knowing someone who actually could use the money wins.

    It's about time you hear a story of a 'good one' winning the lottery! Instead of a doctor or lawyer for that matter LOL!

    It's amazing she is still working at the local grocery store after winning so much money.

    Good stuff.
