Ammon News - A North Carolina woman predicted a lottery jackpot was in her future just before winning $200,000 from a scratch-off ticket.

Hubert resident Sylvia Wells told North Carolina Education Lottery officials she voiced her prediction to her husband just before they bought a pair of scratch-off tickets from the Handy Mart on Western Boulevard in Jacksonville.

"We bought his favorite ticket and my favorite ticket," she said.

Her husband's selection, a Diamond 10X ticket, turned out to be a $200,000 winner.

"I was like, 'I told you we were going to do it,'" Wells recalled saying. "We did it."

Wells said the winnings will go toward buying some land. UPI
