Guy Who Bought Lottery Tickets To Break $100 Bill Wins $10M
Lottery officials announced Thursday that a man who bought two $20 “Platinum Millions” instant tickets at a grocery in East Boston wound up snagging a $10 million haul, reports the Associated Press.
He only stopped in the store so he could break a $100 bill, he says, as he was on the way to get lunch at a sandwich shop.
He and his wife opted to claim a one-time payment of $6.5 million after taxes, which will buy plenty of sandwiches, among other things. He says he also wants to buy a house, invest some money and takes hi granddaughter to Disney World.
