RICHMOND, Va. — Jennifer Ivey is Virginia's newest millionaire.
Ivey, of Loudoun County, won the $5 million top prize in lottery's 100X the Money game.
She bought the ticket at a 7-Eleven on Pleasant Valley Road in Chantilly.
"It feels amazing! It really does!" she said. "I just kind of stared at it because I couldn’t believe it!"
Ivey choose the one-time cash option which means she'll receive $3,125,000 before taxes.
"The 100X the Money scratcher (game #2149) features prizes ranging from $30 to $5 million," a lottery official said. "This is the second of three top prizes claimed in this game, which means one more remains unclaimed."
