WINDSOR, S.C. (WJBF) - Spare change turned into a large jackpot for a Windsor man.

According to the South Carolina Lottery on Thursday, Nov. 6, the winning $2 Palmetto Cash 5 ticket was purchased at the Little Country Store at 500 Middleton Dr. N. in Windsor and matched all five numbers drawn on Oct. 13.

Lottery officials reported the winner said he's played the same set of numbers for years, but there was another factor.

“I bought a quick pick with eight quarters,” he said. “That wasn’t the odds, it was timing.”

The winner said said he’s also going to use the prize to help a friend.

The Little Country Store received a $1,500 ticker for selling the winning ticket.

S.C. Lottery says the odds of winning a Palmetto Cash 5 jackpot are 1 in 850,668.
