Rosa Dominguez stopped for gas and drove home more than half a million bucks richer. She bought a winning scratch card in Paso Robles, Calif.
A few days later, Dominguez needed gas again, so she stopped — at a different station — and bought a $5 Lucky Fortune ticket.
It turned out to be the $100,000 jackpot.
She's using her winnings to buy a new car. No word if this one will get better mileage.
