Sheryel Hanuman displays her ceremonial Powerball check on Monday.

(CNN) -- When Sheryel Hanuman stopped into a supermarket to pick up a greeting card on her way to a wedding, she had no idea she would walk out with a winning lottery ticket.

The married mother of three purchased five $1 Powerball tickets at a Cub Foods store in Minneapolis, Minnesota. One of those tickets turned out to be a winner, transforming the medical records clerk into a multimillionaire.

One of four Powerball winners, Hanuman will receive a lump sum payment of $41.45 million -- before taxes -- from Saturday's $295 million jackpot. Hanuman said she was still "shocked" by winning the drawing. She talked about the experience at a press conference in Roseville, Minnesota, on Monday.
