A 24-year-old Waipahu woman, on her first trip to Las Vegas, is now worrying less about the nation's economy.

Jessica Agbunag won $2.4 million on Wednesday at a Wheel of Fortune slot machine at the California Hotel and Casino.

Agbunag is a babysitter who graduated from high school in 2002. She was in Las Vegas with her boyfriend and family in remembrance of her grandmother's birthday. Her grandmother was a frequent visitor to Las Vegas who loved slot machines.

The Wheel of Fortune machines were good to Agbunag.

She twice won much smaller amounts earlier this week at the same casino.

But on Wednesday, she put $16 into a mega-jackpot machine and it hit big. She said she plans to pay off a car note and give some money to relatives.
