A woman from Jefferson is now $479,532 richer after she matched all five numbers of the Fantasy 5 drawing on Sunday.
Dawn Ferry, 48, had one of two winning tickets, and purchased hers at the Dry Pond Country Store on Ga. 82 in Commerce.
The other winning ticket was sold in Bloomingdale.
Ferry, in a news release, said that she chose her winning numbers (9-10-20-21-29) using a combination of her mother's birthday, her own birthday and the birth months of her nephew, niece and sister.
“The last two numbers, 20 and 21, were random,” she said. “They’re a part of my favorite numbers now.”
Ferry said she intends to use the money to invest and save.
