Rebecca Gonzalez was sad to go to work on Labor Day because she was missing a family barbeque. She bought a Single Double Triple scratcher ticket after her shift and it turned out to be a big winner.
Gonzalez won the $1 million top prize.
She was able to pay off all her debt and says she and her husband plan to buy a new home. She is still working at Walmart.
"I've only told one person at work, and it was the manager who wanted me to stay late on a holiday," Gonzalez told the California Lottery. "He couldn't believe it."
