A Michigan lady bought a Powerball ticket on her way to her holiday cabin.
Deborah Berschbach, of Royal Oak, found out she had won after the interval.
"Wouldn't it be something if you won big for Mother's Day?" Berschbach remarked.
Deborah Berschbach, 54, matched 14-22-38-56-60 in the May 7 Powerball Double Play drawing to win $500,000.
"We couldn't believe it when I scanned the ticket into the Lottery app and saw $500,000," she added.
