The winning numbers were 24, 25, 52, 60, 66 and 5 and she had four white ball numbers, plus the Powerball number. And on top of everything, Clay decided to pay an additional dollar for a Power Play that multiplied her $50,000 prize by three!
Clay¡¯s boyfriend was the first one to know about her victory.
She expressed her happiness saying, ¡°I first discovered that I was a winner Monday evening. Unfortunately, I couldn¡¯t double check my ticket due to the fact that I don¡¯t have electricity in the shed where I¡¯ve been living since my house was destroyed by the fire.¡±
She soon double-checked the winning numbers on the Arkansas Lottery website Tuesday night. ¡°He¡¯s an on-time God¡± was her first thought that crossed her mind.
¡°I don¡¯t have much family left and kept telling my friends that I have the faith of a mustard seed. I knew that God would bless me soon,¡± said Clay.
She is now planning to pay her tithes and purchase a house and a car with her winnings.
