Tiffany Hatfield, 28 from Ocoee near Orlando is feeling very blessed after receiving quite a reasonable lucky sum of money in the midst of the Hurricane Irma ordeal happening in Florida. Hatfield, left her home with her three young daughters late on Friday night after her husband who is deployed in the U.S navy, and stationed in Hawaii called them saying, "I saw the hurricane and you guys needs to leave,". She decided to follow her husband's advice, and left around 10pm alongside the other early evacuees to travel to Virginia where she was going to stay with a friend. The traffic was very heavy, and on Saturday morning she finally made a stop which looked like it was "in the middle of nowhere" - a convenience store located in Rocky Mount, North Carolina. During this pit stop, Tiffany bought two $5 lottery tickets on a whim, one of which she came to realize was worth an entire $10,000! 

Mavis Wanczyk, from Massachusetts has received the blessing of a lifetime, worth millions upon millions of different possibilities, opportunities and permeant security. This woman, has just landed the whopping $758.7 million Powerball jackpot that everyone has been talking about in great anticipation. Wanczyk, who is 53 chose a random assortment of her own lottery "birthday" numbers, after purchasing her ticket from Pride Station & Store, which is located at 27 Montgomery Street in Chicopee in hope of landing the great prize. However, it wasn't until she was returning home from work at Mercy Medical Center, when she was joking around with a fire-fighter friend about the fact that one of them may be winners as all the winning numbers drawn were "birthday numbers" that she decided to check her own and realized that all her numbers matched up..

Jeff Lindsay, has just come forward as the latest prize winner of the 10th biggest lottery jackpot in U.S history which is worth a monumental $447.8 million with the Powerball lottery. Lindsay has declined to have interviews with the media and news outlets, and did not wish to have his photo taken, however we do know the winner's name because it is the California state law to release the name of the winner, therefore it is not possible to remain completely anonymous. Lindsey purchased the winning ticket at Marrietta Liquor & Deli which is located at 27985 Bradley Road in Sun City, California. He ended up returning to the store to cash in a winning ticket with a relatively small prize, however something urged him to purchase another 10 whole Powerball tickets whilst he was there, one of which was worth almost half a billion! 

Would you believe it, that for the 4th time in the history of the United States, the lottery jackpot has skyrocketed to an all-time high of a whopping $600,000,000! Imagine, there's the very real possibility of someone practically becoming a billionaire overnight from purchasing a Powerball lottery ticket which matches up all the winning numbers, including the Powerball number. The lottery prize has increased by a whole $68.5 million from $541,9 million after no winning tickets were sold, meaning the only time other than this that the lottery jackpot grew so much, was back in 2016 with the record-breaking $1,600,000,000 prize which occurred on January 13th 2016 and was shared among 3 different winners from Florida, California and Tennessee. The current jackpot is worth $600,000,000 at the moment, it’s a result of 20 consecutive draws without any significant winners, which started out as a $40 million jackpot on the 14th of June.

She decided to try her hand at a few lottery scratch off tickets, one of which was a $5 Power 5's ticket worth a monumental amount of $555,555! Speaking about how this win made her feel, she stated "I was so nervous, I just wanted to cry". Not long after, Dominguez was still astonished by the huge amount of money that was now hers and decided to pursue another potential win, she bought just one $5 Lucky Fortune ticket from Valero gas station and landed the top prize of $100,000 with the California Lottery!

Richard Maciel, from Orange County sure is feeling great after landing a whole $10,000,000 through a lottery prize. Maciel was on his way to the office when he decided to stop off at the Cypress Smoke Shop which is located at 4041 Ball Road, in Cyprus in order to grab a quick cigar. An impulse purchase, he also decided to pick up a California Gold Scratchers ticket and scratch it straight away in the shop. Instantly seeing zero, after zero on the lottery ticket, a customer next to him said "Look, you won ten thousand dollars", Maciel said "no" and the man said "Oh, that's one hundred thousand dollars" but it was actually worth 10 times that amount, the top prize offered by the lottery game. "Then things got a little noisy to the point where it drew a crowd" Maciel recalled, there was so much celebration that the Cypress Police arrived at the scene shortly after as they thought that something crime related may be happening.
