Massachusetts lotto player wins second $1 million prize in just 10 weeks

A Massachusetts woman miraculously cashed in her second $1 million lottery ticket in just 10 weeks.

Christine Wilson, of Attleborough, struck gold again playing the Massachusetts State Lottery’s “100X Cash” $10 instant ticket game, lottery officials announced on Wednesday.

She had purchased the ticket at Family Food Mart in Mansfield, which will receive $10,000 for selling the big winner. 

Just over 2 months ago, Wilson claimed a $1 million prize off a “Lifetime Millions” $50 instant ticket on Feb. 23. She had purchased that ticket at Dubs’s Discount Liquors in Mansfield.

She decided to receive both of her prizes in the form of lump cash payments of $650,000 each — before taxes.

Wilson told the Massachusetts State Lottery after the first win that she planned to buy a new SUV, which she did.

Following her second $1 million win, she said she’ll put the money in savings.
