Franklin County woman wins first $1 million prize in new game

Linda Smith of Youngsville tried her luck on a $10 scratch-off ticket and won the first $1 million prize in the new Red Hot Millions game.

Smith bought her lucky ticket from ET’s Quick Stop on N.C. 96 in Youngsville.

When Smith arrived at lottery headquarters Monday, she had a decision to make. She could choose to receive the prize as an annuity of $50,000 over 20 years or a lump sum of $600,000. She chose the lump-sum amount of $600,000 and, after required state and federal tax withholdings, took home $427,503.

Red Hot Millions debuted this month with four $1 million prizes. Three $1 million prizes remain to be claimed.

Congratulations! Sure would be nice to win $400,000. Alot of people are in the same situation as me...we just can't afford to purchase 100s of dollars in lottery tickets every day. Not sure how people afford it with the economy being in the state it's in now. Can barely afford groceries. But I guess some people are going to play that lottery and then worry about eating.
