A person who bought a lottery ticket at Fiori’s Gulf, a gas station on Chief Justice Cushing Highway in Cohasset, Massachusetts, has just become a millionaire.
Mega Millions, a lottery game offered in 45 states across the country, had a $1 million payout on a ticket sold in the South Shore community.
Two other Mega Millions tickets, both with $40,000 winnings, were sold in Massachusetts for Tuesday night’s drawing: one in East Hampton, Massachusetts, at Big E’s Foodland, and another in Clinton, Massachusetts, at Next Door Market.
He has been so lucky that he even wrote a book with tips if you want to hit the jackpot. Watch them here.
There were no jackpot winners in Tuesday’s drawing, which had a cash option of $550.2 million.
Tickets are $2 to play and drawings are held at 11 p.m. every Tuesday and Friday, according to the Mass Lottery website. To play, players must select five numbers ranging from 1 to 70, then choose a Mega Ball number ranging from 1 to 25. The jackpot is won when all six numbers on a player’s ticket match the numbers on they were drawn.
The next drawing is scheduled for Friday night, with a $1.25 billion jackpot.
