"They were really busy," the woman said of the store, leading to her decision to sit down and scratch the ticket while she waited.
She ended up revealing a $30,000 top prize. The woman said she quickly sent a photo of the winning ticket to her husband.
"I showed it to a guy I was working with and I said, 'Dude, does that say what I think it does?'" her husband recalled.
The couple said they plan to use the winnings to pay off a loan they used to buy their home.
