A woman has won £39,000 ($50,000) in the lottery after using numbers from a fortune cookie.

Tierra Barley copied the winning digits from a freebie she received in a recent Chinese takeaway.

She told lottery officials she always plays this way when she’s trying her luck on the Powerball game.

But she almost lost out on the big win when she left it behind at the store.

Thankfully, another customer handed it in and Tierra was able to retrieve her ticket.

She was at home on the evening of 8 May when the numbers were called out on her television.

She matched four of the first five numbers, plus the Powerball number.

The winning numbers were 7-41-43-44-51, and the Powerball number was 5.

Thanks to her fortune cookie, she won and claimed the $50,000 prize.

All funds from the lottery go to education in the Old Dominion.
