$3 million scratch-off jackpot hits Montgomery County with winning ticket sold in Pottstown
POTTSTOWN, Pa. — A life-changing lottery win has landed in Montgomery County after a scratch-off ticket worth $3 million was sold at a local beverage shop.
The winning ticket came from “The Hunt for $3,000,000” game and was sold at Pottstown Beverage Company on North Hanover Street.
The retailer will receive a $10,000 bonus for selling the jackpot-winning ticket.
