On Wednesday night, May 20, Issaquah woman Marsha Barger got a phone call that made her $5,000 richer.
The Issaquah resident won the money just for registering for the $5K Sweepstakes with KOMO 4 and watching Wheel of Fortune.
"It was pretty spectacular," Barger said, of her win.
Barger got a knock on the door from 5K, Wheel's silver-sparkled "spokeswedge," who presented her with the $5,000 check.
The Issaquah resident, who recently retired from her job at Bank of America, has been a fan of Wheel of Fortune for 20 years.
Barger already has plans for the money.
"I'm thinking about getting a high-definition television," she said.
