Woman wins $175,000 lottery jackpot in her office's holiday gift exchange

A Kentucky office manager won $175,000 from a scratch-off lottery ticket that she received during her company's white elephant gift exchange. 

White elephant gift exchanges have a quirky set of rules: Typically, gifts are opened in a group, with players then able to "steal" gifts from other players. 

That happened to Lori Janes, the office manager at Harmon Dental Center in Louisville, Kentucky, but it ultimately led to her lottery jackpot. Janes had received a $25 TJ Maxx gift card, but another worker then "stole" that from her. She then had to pick another gift, which was $25 in scratch-off lottery tickets, according to a statement from the Kentucky Lottery.
