RALEIGH, NC --

The winner of a $3 million North Carolina lottery prize says she plans to give some of the money to her church, take a vacation and go shopping.

North Carolina lottery officials say Monica Wilson claimed the last of five top prizes in a scratch-off game.

The Kannapolis homemaker will receive $150,000 a year for 20 years. She received the first payment Wednesday of $102,006 after taxes were withheld.

Wilson bought the ticket in Charlotte on Tuesday and discovered her win while at her husband's office.

The instant game she played was the $200 Million Extravaganza. It began in October 2009. All 10 of the game's $1 million prizes also have been claimed.
