Tipwan Sahasankmontri said she wants to pay off her son's student loans and buy a home with the money. 

Sahasankmontri decided to take the lump sum rather than the annuity payments, which means she'll take home $650,000 before taxes, the lottery said. She bought the winning "$5,000,000 100X Cashword" scratch-off ticket at Riverside Gulf at 1530 Concord St. in Framingham. 

The store will get a $10,000 bonus for selling the ticket. 

There were 10 $1 million tickets in the Cashword game, and Sahasankmontri scored the final one, according to the lottery's website. Her odds of winning that size prize were just over one in a million.
