A Missouri Lottery player in Stoddard County found out she’d won a $50,000 Powerball prize on her way to work.

“And I still went to work!” she laughed.

The winner shared she had bought the winning Quick Pick ticket at Bloomfield C Mart, 405 Highway 24 in Bloomfield, for the Monday, Aug. 7, Powerball drawing.

Her ticket matched four of the five white-ball numbers drawn, plus the Powerball. The winning numbers were 6, 13, 20, 35 and 54, with a Powerball number of 22.

Saturday’s Powerball jackpot is estimated at $264 million.
