"This is unbelievable," Bouton said.  She said that she purchased the ticket as a birthday gift for herself.  According to Bouton, she carried the ticket around in her purse all day before she remembered to scratch the ticket.  "It's the best present I've ever bought for myself!" said Bouton, who plans to use her winnings to take a trip.
Bouton purchased her winning ticket at Food N Fun #14 on Center Street in New Iberia.
