Las Vegas isn’t the only place to get lucky.
Las Vegas resident Patricia Kraydich won $390,000 in the Michigan Lottery after visiting her two newborn grandchildren earlier this month in Macomb, northeast of Detroit.
On a whim, Kraydich picked up two “Lucky for Life” Lottery quick picks at the recommendation of a 7-Eleven clerk on 21 Mile Road in Macomb.
Kraydich quickly forgot all about the tickets.
“As I was getting ready for bed, I saw the ticket on the dresser out of the corner of my eye, so I checked it on my phone,” she said. “I was stunned.”
Kraydich immediately ran to tell her daughter. In disbelief, her daughter double-checked the numbers and found that all five matched.
Kraydich chose a lump sum payment of $390,000 over $25,000 annually for 20 years or life. Kraydich has since purchased a home.
