Warren Woman Wins $20K On Tops’ ‘Rip It And Win It’

WARREN, Pa. — Sometimes all you need is a little bit of luck.

Leilani Baxter of Warren, Pa., was the second $20,000 winner in the Tops Friendly Markets’ Monopoly “Rip It And Win It” game. Amid concerns in the world right now about the COVID-19, Tops is still making sure people’s baskets are filled with their essentials including great prizes like Monopoly wins.

When asked if she had any fun strategies when playing, she admitted she and her husband only stopped at the store for a few things and received two tickets for their purchase.

According to Baxter, there is no secret to playing and winning, all it simply takes is a little luck.

She said that it was the first time playing the Monopoly game for her and her husband and it was on their way home she decided to open up the tickets. It only took ripping open the first one to claim a winner.

“The excitement was overwhelming,” Baxter said. “I felt like a kid in a candy store.”

Baxter said she and her husband haven’t decided what to do with the money, but she does have some ideas. They do not have any official plans because of everything going on with the coronavirus emergency.

Baxter was able to help someone impacted by the virus and plans to help others.

Another amazing member of the community paying it forward.
