(CNN) — A Maryland woman won $25,000 in the lottery, picked up her winnings at the game venue, then walked across the street and won $50,000 more.
Victoria Sadler had collected a prize from lottery officials when she decided to try her luck once more at a nearby gas station.
The 59-year-old bought a $1 Pick 5 ticket, which she said is her favorite game, and found she had won once more.
“I was so excited I mightn’t believe it,” Sadler said in a Press release of the Maryland Lottery.
She decided to play the numbers of her grandson’s birthday because the same digits had led her to win the lottery before.
“When I realized I had won my jaw dropped,” he told lottery officials.
Since winning was not new to her, she was quick to make an appointment to claim her new prize, according to the press release.
And what is Sadler going to do now that he’s won the lottery twice?
He’s going to Disney World, of course!
After funding a magical family trip, Sadler said the rest of his latest prize money will go into his savings and investments.
Sadler isn’t the only winner to benefit from the lucky numbers. Royal Farms Gas Station will receive a $500 bonus from the Maryland Lottery for selling the winning ticket.
