In New Haven County, Wallingford resident Cynthia Jackson won $77,000 playing "Mega 7s" on a ticket sold at Nisa's Variety on East Center Street in Wallingford, lottery officials announced on Tuesday, Jan. 18.

Later that week, on Thursday, Jan. 20, a winning $277,777 "Mega 7s" prize was cashed in by Westerly, Rhode Island resident Mark Britton that was sold at the Bestway Convenience on Libert Street in Pawcatuck in New London County.

According to CT Lottery, “when a winning scratch ticket is validated through a Lottery Retailer's terminal, the remaining number of unclaimed prizes for that prize level is automatically updated reflecting one less prize. Until the individual or group presents their winning ticket for claim at CT Lottery Headquarters, the identity of a winner is unknown.”

Those three weren't the only lucky lotto players. Other recent winners of prizes reaching five digits, according to CT Lotto include:
