They won the money playing the “$1,000,000 Snow Much Money” $5 scratch-off lottery game.
The Green Acres Nominee Trust of Pittsfield chose to take the lump sum of $650,000 before taxes rather than the annuity.
Benjamin Smith, a representative of the trust, collected the check for the winner. Using a trust allows the winner to remain anonymous.
The winning ticket was sold at Green Acres Package & Variety at 1613 S. State Road in Cheshire. The store will get a $10,000 bonus for the sale.
