"I was just sitting at the table having lunch, when I just had an urge to go out and get a scratch-off," Moran said.
She said she unusually buys only one ticket at a time, but curiosity led her to buy three $5 Diamonds & Gold Doubler tickets, the third of which paid off with a $50,000 top prize.
"I've never won this big, just small amounts like $25 to $50," Moran said.
"I was very happy and even cried a little bit," she said. "I was so excited that when I got home, I missed the entrance to my house!"
