A 39-year-old woman from Macomb County, Michigan, won nearly a million dollars after thinking her lottery app was not working.
The woman, who did not want to be identified, won $925,434 on a Super Lucky 7s Fast Cash ticket, according to the Michigan Lottery in a Jan. 5 news release.
He bought the ticket on Nov. 16 at a liquor store in Romeo, Michigan, about 40 miles north of Detroit.
The lottery winner said that every few weeks, she and her husband would “go to the store and buy a bunch of tickets and then come home and scratch them off.”
He added: “While we were in the store, I saw that the Fast Cash jackpot was approaching a million dollars, so I bought some Fast Cash tickets.”
When the lottery winner got home, she looked at her ticket and thought “she hadn’t won,” she said.
“But I scanned it into the Michigan Lottery app to be sure,” he also said.
Turns out it was a good decision.
The app told him he had won $925,434.

“I thought something was wrong with the scanner,” he said. “I looked at the ticket again and when I saw that I actually won, I was blown away!”
The woman claimed her winnings and now plans to pay off her car and put the rest toward her retirement, the Michigan Lottery said.
“Fast Cash games are a series of instant win games that are printed from terminals at Lottery retailers. Fast Cash tickets range in price from $2 per game to $20 per game,” the Michigan Lottery said.

The games “offer a progressive jackpot” and “each Fast Cash ticket provides players with the opportunity to win all or part of the progressive jackpot.”
Once the jackpot was won, it has since restarted.
Michigan Lottery proceeds go to support the state’s schools, according to the lottery’s website.
“Since its inception in 1972, the Michigan Lottery has contributed all agency profits to the State of Michigan School Aid Fund,” the site said.
