Veronica Spekis, a retail clerk at the Soda Pop Shop in Maryland, got a pair of scratch-off lottery tickets from a regular customer as a year end "tip". When she rubbed the first $5 Holiday Riches ticket, she discovered she'd won the $50,000 top prize.
Spekis, who was totally stunned by the holiday miracle, says she plans to use her winnings to help reach her goal of buying a house.
