Juan Garcia stopped at a convenience store to get quarters to wash his clothes. While he was there, he bought a $5 Mega Bucks scratch-off ticket.
That ticket was good for a $250,000 prize.
After taxes, Garcia took home more than $177,000.
The 22-year-old HVAC installer, who is the father of a 6-month-old baby girl, plans to put his winnings toward a house for his family.
