Heather Sanchez, 30, bought her winning ticket at the King Party Store, located at 1029 South Madison Avenue in Bay City.
“I stopped to buy a ticket and scanned it before I left the store,” said Sanchez. “As soon as I saw the amount come up on the screen, I was in utter disbelief. Everyone in the store crowded around me to see how much I had won.
“This is a feeling I can’t describe. I feel so blessed,” said Sanchez. “I have two daughters, so this money will help me provide a great foundation for them.”
Sanchez visited Lottery headquarters Friday to claim the big prize. With the money, she plans to buy a new house to raise her daughters in.
