LaCedra Edwards was at Vons in Tarzan, Calif. in November and put $40 into a California Lottery Scratchers vending machine. When she was about to choose which game she wanted to play, "some rude person" pushed her.
According to Edwards, the stranger's push caused her to enter a number on the machine that she had not planned to dial. The result was a $200 Scratchers 30X ticket that she had no intention of buying.
“He just stumbled upon me, didn’t say anything and just walked out,” recalls the lucky woman.

She revealed that she was annoyed not only that the man ran into her, but that she wasted 75% of her lottery money on a single ticket instead of being able to buy her usual selection of cheaper lotteries.
Edwards returned to her car and began to check the purchased ticket. It was then that she realized that she had won the main prize of the game - $ 10 million.

“I didn’t really believe it at first,” she said. “I’m still in shock.” All I remember is when I found out how much I won, I simply said: “I’m rich!”
The supermarket received a $50 bonus for selling the winning ticket.
Edwards plans to use his winnings to buy a house and start a nonprofit.
