TELL ME SOMETHING GOOD: Lottery winner’s ticket mix-up turns into a cash windfall

We’ve all been there… winning $5 on a scratch ticket and hoping that when you cash it in it’s actually for $5 million and you just read it wrong.

Well something similar happened to this one Seattle couple recently. They bought a lottery ticket and thought they won $360. But when they went to cash it, they were told it was actually for $360,000! Obviously they were pretty shocked and excited at the same time. They said the first thing they did with the money was give their son and daughter-in-law a check for $10,000. They are about to be first time grandparent and wanted to help them out with the expenses that go with it.

Always great to see good people win the lottery.
