 Wayne Co. Lottery Club wins $1 mil with ticket bought in Westland

The $1 million ticket was purchased at the Wayne Med Mart located at 417 S. Wayne Road in Westland.

The members of the New Beginnings Lottery Club are looking forward to being debt-free after winning $1 million playing the Michigan Lottery’s Mega Millions game.

“The club doesn’t play Mega Millions often, but felt lucky and decided to buy a ticket,” said Anthony Jabbour, the club’s representative and spokesperson.

“When our member with the ticket checked the numbers and saw five matches, he cried tears of joy!”

Good-bye debt!

“Congratulations to the aptly named ‘New Beginnings Lottery Club’ on their life-changing $1 million Mega Millions win that will allow the members to erase their debts,” said Lottery Commissioner Suzanna Shkreli.

The winning ticket

“All Lottery players dream of winning big, and this is just one example of that dream coming true for a group of Michiganders.”

The lottery club matched the five white balls in the Nov. 5 Mega Millions drawing to win $1 million: 02-24-25-52-58. They bought the winning ticket at the Wayne Med Mart, located at 417 South Wayne Road in Westland.

The club members recently visited Lottery headquarters to claim the big prize. With their winnings they plan to pay bills and then save the remainder.

“To be debt-free is what we have all dreamed about, so to see that become a reality is truly a dream come true,” said Jabbour.
