Robert and Mary Thomas spent their lives working hard and saving every penny, but it’s finally time to sit back and relax. This fortunate couple from West Virginia will be able to enjoy their freedom thanks to netting the amazing Powerball windfall worth $2.000.000. You could do the same after the next Powerball Max draw – a ground-breaking $750.000.000 jackpot is up for grabs!
Mr. Thomas correctly guessed the main numbers 19, 21, 27, 46 and 47, but missed the Power Ball 7 on July 11th. His Match 5 prize doubled because he used Power Play option, and the lucky winner said he was happy for spending that extra buck since it made a big difference. Mr. Thomas purchased his ticket at the Fas Chek Super Market on Campbell’s Creek Drive in Charleston. When he went back to check the numbers at the same store, he couldn’t believe his ticket was actually worth $2.000.000.
“Dave (the store owner) tried to convince me that I won, but I didn’t know whether to believe him or not. When I got home, I told my wife I forgot what I went to the store for because they told me I won $2.000.000,” recalled Mr. Thomas.
This isn’t even the first major lotto victory for this couple – they also won a spot on the Power Cruise a few of months ago. Their latest prize is much more welcomed, since it will allow them to pay off their bills and financially secure their future.
“We’ve both worked hard all our lives and we both have health issues now so this will help.” I had joked with the store owner of the Fas Chek when I won the cruise that I wish it was money instead, and now this,” said Mr. Thomas.
