As Doris Horton completed her grocery shopping at Woods Supermarket, located at 701 East Broadway in Sedalia, on October 9th, she decided to purchase a “$5,000,000 Big Money” Missouri Lottery Scratchers ticket.

“I got in my car and prayed, ‘Dear God, we need a blessing,’” said Horton, recalling how she won her $10,000 prize. “All my numbers were matching, but I thought it was $250 first. I had to call my neighbor to have her look at the ticket before I started to believe it.”

According to a press release, Horton, who is 56, plans to pay for her two great-grandsons’ daycare costs with her $10,000 payout, adding that she hopes the money will help with the upcoming Christmas holiday.
