The money will go toward buying a generator, since she and her husband have experienced power outages lately, and some of the cash will be given to her son and grandson, Suzie told lottery officials.
The Weis Market at 1238 Putty Hill Avenue in Towson will earn a $200 bonus, or 1 percent of the prize amount, for selling the top-prize ticket.
