Jamila McCaskill was having a “tough day” at work, so she decided to take a break to relax and also try her luck on an online lottery app. That decision paid off big time as she ended up winning a $100,000 lottery prize, PEOPLE reported.
“I logged in to the Lottery app to do my Daily Spin to Win and then decided to play some games,” the 44-year-old told lottery officials in Michigan, per a press release. “As I was scrolling through the different games, Diamond Payout caught my eye, so I started playing.”
And though McCaskill’s first spin did not yield any positive results, Lady Luck smiled on her when she tried again. “On only my second spin, the screen lit up and I knew I had won a prize. When I saw the prize amount of $100,000, I couldn’t believe it,” she recalled. “This is by far the largest prize I have ever won, and it feels amazing!”
