Buzbee said she decided to splurge on a $5,000,000 Ultimate scratch-off ticket during one of the stops.
"It was the first time I've ever bought a $30 ticket," Buzbee said.
The ticket turned out to be a $100 winner.
"When I won $100, I was really excited. We even did a little happy dance about it," Buzbee said.
She decided to reinvest her winnings by buying another of the same ticket at the next stop.
"This time I just scratched off the barcode area and scanned it in the ticket checker," Buzbee said. "When I saw message on the ticket checker, I thought, 'This can't be right,' but it was. It was a $10,000 winner!"
Buzbee said the wins were part of a lucky streak.
"Last week was a great week," Buzbee said. "[The prize] is going to pay my bills for the next couple months, and I just got a job offer the same week!"
