American scratch cards are a growing business

A US man struck it more than lucky by bagging a $5m prize on a scratch card - then buying more tickets on the same day and twice winning again, lottery officials say.

In August, in New Jersey.

After winning the top prize he had another go, sealing $500 and $100.

The retired union worker says he plans to help friends and family with the winnings.
