Note
One regular spelling serves as both past tense and past participle: she lucked into it, she had lucked into it. The verb is intransitive, so it reaches what was found only through a preposition (into, on, onto or upon), and it has no passive. It belongs to informal speech. In formal writing, found by chance or happened upon says the same thing.
