LANSING, April 11, 2007 – A huge Bonus Wild Time ticket was cashed in today at the Lottery’s Sterling Heights office.  A very lucky woman claimed the $35,000 prize.

After learning of her good fortune, the lucky woman was “shocked” and immediately hid her winning ticket in her safe.  She plans on using the prize money to help with home improvements.

The woman, who opted to remain anonymous, purchased the lucky winning ticket at Gratiot Drugs, 36640 S. Gratiot Ave., in Clinton Twp.

Bonus Wild Time is just one of many Michigan Lottery Instant tickets available at nearly 11,000 Lottery retailers statewide.

All proceeds from the Lottery are contributed to the state School Aid Fund which supports kindergarten through 12th grade public education in Michigan.  In fiscal year 2006, the contribution was $688 million.
