Lottery Enthusiast Claims $30,000 Cashword Top Prize!!! 

(Boise, ID) What´s in a name? Possibly $30,000 when it´s Idaho Lottery´s Cashword the Name Game! Just ask Reta Cloyd who picked up a cool $30,000 on the $3 scratch ticket on Wednesday. 

"This is one of the best days!" Reta pronounced when she came to the Lottery office to cash in the winning ticket. 

Reta loves scratching tickets and buys three Cashwords almost everyday just to pass the time, never really expecting to win the top prize. The big winner was the first of the three that she bought. "I was shaking, I didn´t even scratch the other two," she said. "My son was mowing the yard and I gave them to him." 

Reta already bought two pairs of shoes, and she has plans to spend more but she´s not yet sure on what.  

The winning ticket was bought at a Stinker Station in Nampa. The store will receive a $3,000 bonus for selling the winning ticket. Congratulations Reta!
