Tiffany Brown matched the first five numbers of her Quic Pic ticket in Monday’s draw but the prize is well below the current jackpot that now sits at more than $700million
A woman won a $1million Powerball prize this week after being encouraged by her friend to play during an incredible $638million drawing.
Tiffany Brown’s luck was in as the first five numbers of her Quic Pic ticket matched those selected in Monday’s drawing. However, it was not enough to bag the staggering $638million jackpot that was on offer at the time.
The elated winner claimed her prize a couple of days later on Wednesday at the Massachusetts State Lottery’s Dorchester headquarters. Her prize totals $1million before taxes.
She bought the winning ticket at Supreme Liquors, in 506 Geneva Ave, in Dorchester. The store itself is also due to receive $10,000 for selling the ticket, according to a State Lottery release.
