A young woman who went shopping to buy shoes ended up winning a luxury Mercedes Benz in a lottery draw, Liaoshen Evening News reported.

"My friends didn't believe it at first and were saying 'give me a break, I wish you got a plane', It's my best decision to buy two pairs of shoes in the mall," said the lucky lady Wang Shiyi.

Wang bought shoes at a mall in Shenyang of Liaoning province and was given a lottery ticket which resulted in her scooping the top prize.

But Wang is not planning to accelerate her success by driving around in her posh new vehicle. "I am going to sell the car because I don't know how to drive," she added.
