A stop at a local liquor store has turned into a seven-figure payday for one Florida woman.

The Florida Lottery confirmed that Clotilde Prospere, of Orange Park, claimed a $2 million top prize after playing the Triple Jackpot Scratch-Off game. She presented her winning ticket at the Lottery’s Jacksonville District Office on August 27.

Prospere purchased the lucky ticket at the Winn-Dixie Liquor located at 8560 Argyle Forest Boulevard in Jacksonville.
