COLLEGE STUDENT WINS $35 MILLION JACKPOT SUPERLOTTO PLUS® JACKPOT
April 8, 2009
SACRAMENTO – A college student who purchased her SuperLOTTO Plus ticket in Newark is California’s newest millionaire, winning the $35 million jackpot from this weekend.
ChristianAimee Reyes, a college student, was cooking dinner for her family Saturday night when her parents decided to go to the store. She asked them to buy her three SuperLOTTO Plus tickets, which they did.
On Monday, while watching the news, she heard the winning ticket was purchased in Newark, at the same store where her parents shop. “I checked the numbers, then I screamed and had the entire family double check the numbers to make sure they matched and they did,” said Reyes.
Reyes only plays the Lottery every so often but said her family plays it avidly. She said she plans to do some very special things with her prize: “I plan to live a very happy life and help my family to live a very happy life as well!”
Reyes chose the cash option and will receive approximately $16.5 million after taxes.
The winning ticket was purchased at Lion Food Center located at 39055 Cedar Boulevard #168 in Newark. The retailer will receive a bonus of $175,000 for selling the winning ticket.
