The lucky player, who chose to remain anonymous, bought his winning ticket at Jack’s Fruit Market, located at 1000 Salzburg Avenue in Bay City.

“I had been to Jack’s earlier in the day and bought a couple of tickets,” said the 58-year-old player. “I had to return an item later in the day, and decided to buy a couple more tickets and one of those was the $1 million winner!”

The lucky player recently visited Lottery headquarters to claim the big prize. He chose to receive his prize as a one-time lump sum payment of about $693,000, rather than annuity payments for the full amount.

With his winnings, he plans to pay off his house and then save the remainder.
