New York’s ‘luckiest’ store hits the jackpot yet again – sells its 8th million-dollar winning lotto ticket

An upstate New York store sold eight million-dollar winning tickets in a year and a half, making it one of the luckiest shops to buy lottery tickets in the entire Empire State . The nondescript Newburgh smoke shop, Smoke 4 Less, sold two million-dollar tickets this week alone which means eight winners bought their tickets from here in 8 months. According to reports, one person who bought the tickets from here won $1 million in a Powerball drawing on Monday.



The following day, another customer won $1 million in the Mega Millions drawing but went for the multiplier option, which doubled it to $2 million, the station reported. New Yorkers from beyond Orange County have been buying lotto tickets there. Many are now heading to the shop from far beyond the county to try their luck. “This place is on fire without a doubt,” Jack Feeley, told ABC 7 after making the over two-hour drive to Smoke 4 Less.
