Detroit Woman Wins $2M On Scratch-Off Ticket: MI Lottery

DETROIT — A 29-year-old Detroit woman won $2 million on a scratch-off ticket, according to the Michigan Lottery.

The lucky player, who chose to remain anonymous, bought the winning Supreme ticket at 8 Mile Foodland, located at 18880 West 8 Mile Road in Southfield, lottery officials said.

"I was at the store and bought an instant ticket before leaving," the woman said. "I scratched the ticket when I got home and was in shock when I saw I won $2 million! I didn’t believe what I was seeing, so I had to have my grandpa double check the ticket. It was such an unreal feeling, and it still hasn’t fully sunk in."

She chose to receive her prize as a one-time lump sum payment of about $1.3 million, rather than 30 annuity payments for the full amount, lottery officials said.

With her winnings, she plans to travel and help her family, lottery officials said.
