A man in New Jersey won the lottery three times in one day with scratch-off tickets.

The Ultimate Riches ticket with the highest prize was purchased at Rancocas Wine and Spirits on Rancocas Road in Mounty Holly.
According to the NJ.com report, the big day began with a “scratch-off” while the lucky one bought a coffee and a “muffin” in an unspecified place. In that first hit, he won the $50.
Next, he bought another ticket in the same place that was the winner of the $100.
