$30,000 & $10,000 Instant Ticket, $11,584 Numbers & $10,500 Keno Winners
A man from Cranston buys Rhode Island Lottery Instant Tickets just a few times a year. While at J & J Gasbarro Oaklawn Liquors, 985 Oaklawn Ave., Cranston, the store clerk asked if he wanted one. So, he opted to buy the "Emerald Green 7s" Instant Ticket for his wife of 57 years and won $30,000! He said it will be entirely up to her how they spend the winnings!
There was another big Instant Ticket winner over the weekend; a Coventry woman won $10,000 playing the "Supreme Cash" Instant Game at Colbea, 79 Nooseneck Hill Rd., West Greenwich. There are over $4 million in prizes remaining to be claimed in this game, including one $250,000 top prize. All Instant Ticket game information and remaining prizes are listed on the Rhode Island Lottery's website.
