Ruby Evans thought she won $2,000, but the store clerk told her she actually won $2 million. LOS ANGELES, CA — If Ruby Evans was thrilled to win $2,000 playing an Instant Prize Crossword Scratcher, imagine how she felt when the store clerk scanned her ticket and explained she actually won $2,000,000. Evans took it in stride, however. She'd won the lottery before. Evans had just purchased her scratcher at Sweet Time Donuts in Compton and was sitting in her car scratching the ticket when she realized she had a winner.
