Apopka woman wins top prize in the $1,000 A WEEK FOR LIFE Scratch-Off game

Posted on August 8, 2017

The Florida Lottery announces that Glamorous Cornelius, 62, of Apopka, claimed a top prize in the $1,000 A WEEK FOR LIFE Scratch-Off game at Florida Lottery Headquarters in Tallahassee. She chose to receive her winnings in annual payments of $52,000 for the duration of her life, guaranteed for a minimum of 20 years.
Cornelius purchased her winning ticket from Publix, located at 1538 South Federal Highway in Delray Beach. The retailer will receive a $2,000 bonus commission for selling the winning Scratch-Off ticket.
The $2 Scratch-Off game, $1,000 A WEEK FOR LIFE, launched in July and features more than 10 million winning tickets, including eight top prizes of $1,000 a week for life! The game’s overall odds of winning are one-in-4.43.
Scratch-Offs are an important part of the Lottery’s portfolio of games, generating more than $784 million for the Educational Enhancement Trust Fund (EETF) in FY 2016-17, and comprising approximately 68 percent of ticket sales.
