Troy woman wins $50K on $30 Holiday Millions scratch-off just in time for the holidays

TROY, OH — A Troy woman is heading into the holiday season with $50,000 in extra cheer after purchasing a winning Holiday Millions scratch-off ticket at a local Circle K.

The $30 ticket was bought at Circle K #5341, located at 3519 S. County Road 25A in Troy. After 27.125% in state and federal taxes, the winner will take home $36,437.50.

Holiday Millions is a high-value scratch-off that launched with a top prize of $80,000 a year for life. The Ohio Lottery reports that as of November 13, two top prizes and four second-tier prizes — including the $50,000 win — remain unclaimed. The game offers the best odds in Ohio Lottery history to win $500 and has overall winning odds of 1 in 3.21.

The win adds to a growing list of holiday-themed victories across the state as seasonal tickets continue to surge in popularity. The Holiday Millions game offers several prize levels ranging from small amounts to life-changing jackpots, with thousands of prizes still available.

The Ohio Lottery has contributed over $34 billion to education programs since 1974, with scratch-off ticket sales playing a significant role in supporting public schools statewide.
