$200K Lotto Ticket Left in Car for 45 Days

Orange County woman and husband find winning ticket in carWhen an Orange County woman asked her husband to go clean the car, he came back with some old lottery tickets. Turns out one was worth $1, another was $3 and the final ticket was $198,468. The woman had bought the tickets back in March at a Fountain Valley liquor store and forgot about them until her husband came up with them.

The next time your mother, your wife, your girlfriend or whoever tells you to go clean, you better hope they left you a lottery ticket too. In any case, Mother's day is coming up: cleaning her car will at least win you some karma points.
