Michigan woman wins $1 million from local instant game

The ticket was bought at Aikan Liquor on 44th Street Southeast in Kentwood. The woman has already visited the lottery office to claim her prize, choosing the lump sum payment, which gave her $693,000. Reflecting on her win, she mentioned being a frequent lottery player and typically purchasing tickets from various locations. On that lucky day when she bought the winning ticket, she shared that the money will be used to resolve financial issues and make life easier. “It will also allow my son and me to have a little fun,” she added. The $1,000,000 Bonus Scratch Multiplier instant game has paid out over $16 million since it launched in February 2026, with each ticket costing $10. This story echoes another recent winner who initially believed she had won $10. Upon further inspection, however, the Lincoln Park woman realized she had won $635,000 instead.
