Mum and gran Ivy Veal-Sanders had picked up a ticket on the spur of the moment after a trip to New Family Supermarket on 205 Humboldt Ave. in Dorchester – a neighbourhood of Boston, USA.

She is the Massachusetts State Lottery’s first USD-1-million prize winner of 2023 on the ‘USD 4,000,000 Money Bags’ instant ticket game.

The win is also good news for the ticket seller, as the store will receive a USD-10,000 bonus for the sale of the ticket.

The lucky woman can be seen here collecting her oversized cheque in Dorchester on 3rd January.
