Sanitation Workers Recover €1 Million Lottery Ticket Discarded By Winner

A woman in Italy played the lottery with the same numbers every time.

One day, she won a very big prize of one million euros.

When she checked her ticket at the shop, the machine said it was 'non-payable.'

That message just means the prize is too big for the shop to pay out itself.

Not knowing she had really won, she threw the ticket into the garbage.

Later, a family member told her that her numbers had won.

She ran back to the shop, but the trash had already been picked up.

She asked the waste company for help, and the workers stopped the right garbage truck.

After searching for more than a day, they found the ticket still in one piece, and she cried happy tears.

She had to pay for the special search, but she got her winning ticket back.
