Michigan $1 million winner eyes home purchase Drawing Date: 3/5/2024 April 1, 2024 - Home sweet home! A Bay City woman is looking forward to becoming a homeowner after winning a $1 million Gold Millions prize from the Michigan Lottery. Anna Marquez, 31, matched the five white balls in the March 5 drawing to win the big prize: 02-49-50-61-70. She bought her winning ticket online at MichiganLottery.com. “I play Gold Millions here and there, usually when the jackpot starts getting large,” said Marquez. “I logged in the day after the drawing and was shocked when I saw a big amount pending in my account! Honestly, I thought it was scam at first because you just don’t think this type of thing will happen to you. I checked my email and saw one from the Lottery with information on claiming a prize, so that’s when I knew it was real!” Marquez visited Lottery headquarters recently to claim her prize. With her winnings, she plans to buy a house, pay bills, and then save the remainder. Gold Millions drawings take place each Tuesday and Friday evening. Each Gold Millions play is only $2. For an additional $1 per play, players have the opportunity to add a “Megaplier” that can multiply non-jackpot prizes by up to five times. Gold Millions tickets and online entries are offered through supported Gold Millions regions and authorized partners.
