Quarters helped pull a Pensacola woman right out of the recession. Jackie Elenz won more than three-quarters of a million dollars playing quarter slots! Elenz hit it big at the Beau Rivage Casino in Biloxi Sunday. All it took was 50 bucks of her own money and one lucky quarter slot machine. The next thing she knew, she hit Jeopardy Jackpot! Now, she's sitting pretty with her nearly $850,000 winnings, " I'm still trying to sink it in, like I said, we still went to Burger King for lunch and went to Wal-Mart, so, I mean, you know, that part hasn't changed," said Elenz. Elenz plans to put that casino cash to good use. She says she'll pay off her 2002 Corvette, and maybe get a new one. Buy a new home, rescue some dogs at the Humane Society where she volunteers, and give her seven children a very Merry Christmas!
