Southington Resident Wins Big Lottery Prize

SOUTHINGTON, CT — A local supermarket sold a pretty lucrative lottery ticket Monday to an unidentified, but very lucky, individual.

The winner hailed from Plantsville, according to the Connecticut Lottery Corp., and the winning Mega Millions ticket wasn't for millions, but it did result in a $20,000 payout.

That's not a bad investment, considering playing the drawing game costs a minimum of $2 to play, not including prize multiplier options.

The ticket was purchased at the Southington Price Chopper store, which is located 410 Queen St., said lottery officials.
