Colleen Robitaille, of Pittsfield, won the seven-figure payday playing the $5 “Electric 7s” scratch-off lottery ticket. It was the final grand prize for that game. 

Robitaille took the lump-sum payment of $650,000 (before taxes) rather than the annuity. 

She bought the ticket at Kwik Mart at 1245 West Housatonic St. in Pittsfield. The store will get a $10,000 bonus for the sale.
