A $5 million-winning $5 Million Money Maker Scratch-Off sold at the Beer N Cigar, 3842 Union Deposit Road, Harrisburg.

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

This is the top prize the $50 game offers.

"Scratch-Offs are distributed at random, meaning the Pennsylvania Lottery and its retailers do not know where winning tickets will be sold. The Lottery learns where winning tickets are sold only after a prize has been claimed," the commission says. 

Scratch-Off prizes expire one year from the game's end-sale date posted at palottery.com. Winners should immediately sign the back of their ticket and call the Lottery at 1-800-692-7481.
