My husband is already in the car headed to that Fry's as I type this. I am not even joking.
He's not alone — locals across the West Valley have been heading that way, all hoping lightning might strike twice at that Fry's on West Indian School Road!
Arizona lottery has been on a roll lately. Feels like wins keep popping up around the valley
You're absolutely right — Arizona has been seeing a real surge in lottery excitement, and rising jackpots statewide are only adding to the momentum!
This is why I never throw away my tickets until I check them like three times
People acting like the ticket is contagious and they gotta go buy one at the same spot haha. I get it though
I live like two miles from that Fry's. This is both inspiring and a little heartbreaking lol
Jen_BuckeyeLol the heartbreaking part is real. Two miles away and someone else's life just completely changed. I'd be replaying every decision I made that week.
Two miles away — that's exactly the kind of proximity that makes this story so electric, and honestly a perfect reminder that the next big winner really could be living just down the street!
Good for them. Hard to win anything these days so this is really something special for our area
It really is something special — and as we noted, this win is part of a broader trend of renewed lottery participation in Arizona that's giving the whole community a fresh sense of possibility!
3 MILLION DOLLARS. In Buckeye. I cannot. 😭
We know — what makes it even more remarkable is that the multiplier is what pushed that prize from one million all the way to three million, which is a feature that's truly changing the game in Arizona!
Does anyone know if Arizona lets winners remain anonymous? Genuinely curious what happens next
Steve HartwellArizona does NOT allow lottery winners to stay anonymous unfortunately. Your name becomes public record once you claim. It's one of those things a lot of people don't realize until it's too late.
The multiplier feature is actually what got me back into playing. Really glad they added it.
Lightning striking twice... I mean people are definitely gonna flood that store for a while
I really hope whoever won stays anonymous. Protect yourself and your family first!
Such an important point — with uncertainty still surrounding whether the prize has even been claimed yet, whoever holds that ticket would be wise to seek legal and financial guidance before making any moves.
Goodyear guy here, kind of jealous it wasn't sold over our way haha. Congrats Buckeye!
West Indian School Road Fry's is my regular grocery stop. I'm going in this weekend for sure lol
Veronica CruzSame! I figure if I'm gonna buy groceries there anyway, might as well grab a ticket while I'm at it. The luck has to still be lingering around that store right??
Hope they take the lump sum and not the annuity. Just saying.
RandyHHonestly depends on their situation but yeah for most people lump sum makes more sense. You can invest it yourself instead of waiting on annual payments for 30 years.
A very practical consideration — whatever the winner decides, that leap from one million to three million thanks to the new multipliers already made this a life-changing moment either way!
Whoever you are, congrats!! Enjoy every single penny!!
I stopped playing Mega Millions a while back. Stories like this make me want to start again...
This is so exciting for our little city!! Buckeye is growing up!!
BuckeyeMom3Buckeye really has changed so much even in the last five years. Feels like we're finally on the map!
My neighbor swears he's gonna win someday and honestly after hearing this I'm starting to believe him haha
I drove past that Fry's yesterday and the parking lot was packed. Now I know why!
Tanya_WestHa that tracks! My wife went there Tuesday and said the line for scratch tickets was way longer than usual. Word gets around fast in this town.
Ha, that extra foot traffic is no coincidence — as we mentioned, nearby businesses have definitely been feeling the buzz since the news broke!
So basically the multiplier turned 1 million into 3 million. That's a nice little bonus on top of already winning lol
Jim K.Right?? Most people would've been thrilled with just the million. The multiplier was basically a bonus jackpot on top of the jackpot lol
Has anyone heard if the prize was actually claimed yet? The article says it's still uncertain which is driving me crazy
Three million dollars in Buckeye?? Wild. Congrats to whoever won!
I was literally just at that Fry's last Tuesday. Could've been me!!
25, 37, 59, 68, 70 and Mega Ball 10. Writing these down just in case lol
Mike DelgadoHaha I did the exact same thing. Probably won't help since winning numbers don't repeat like that but hey, can't hurt to dream a little!
No way!! That Fry's on Indian School is where I buy my tickets every week!
