Double Luck Strikes: Woman Claims $1 Million Scratch-Off Prize—Twice—in Less Than 10 Weeks!

Luck Strikes Twice: Massachusetts Woman Hits $1 Million Jackpot—Twice—Less Than 10 Weeks Apart!

In a remarkable twist of fortune, Christine Wilson of Attleborough, located about 40 miles south of Boston, has defied the adage that lightning doesn't strike twice by winning $1 million on two separate scratch-off tickets, with mere weeks between her windfalls.

The Massachusetts Lottery revealed that Wilson secured her second $1 million prize on a $10 100X Cash ticket she purchased at a Family Food Mart in Mansfield. Following her win, the convenience store pocketed a $10,000 bonus.

But this wasn't Wilson's inaugural visit to the Massachusetts Lottery Headquarters. Her initial triumph occurred on February 23 when she clinched the first $1 million prize on the $50 Lifetime Millions instant ticket game. Opting for the lump sum payment of $650,000, Wilson made her purchase at Dubs’s Discount Liquors in Mansfield, granting the package store a $10,000 bonus.

Post her initial victory, Wilson disclosed her intention to procure a new SUV using some of her winnings. This time, however, she has decided to allocate her windfall to savings. Despite her newfound financial luck, Wilson did fulfill her plan of acquiring the SUV.

According to the Massachusetts Lottery, the odds of clinching the initial top prize of $4 million are 1 in 5,376,000, while those for the subsequent $1 million top prize stand at 1 in 1,612,800. The overall odds are calculated at 1 in 3.47. For the $1 million top prize in the Lifetime Millions game, the odds are 1 in 8,400,000, with overall odds of 1 in 4.10.
