CHARLOTTE HALL, Md. – A St. Mary’s County woman is celebrating a flooring win after claiming a $50,000 top prize on the $5 Break the Bank scratch-off.
The regular player recently visited Lottery headquarters Nov. 10 to claim her prize and share her story. A Lottery enthusiast for more than 25 years, she said her biggest win before this was $1,000, but that never stopped her and her husband from playing.
“At my age, you find fun where you can,” the player, who is in her 60s, laughed. “That’s our fun on the weekends.”
The winner was at home when her husband scratched off the winning ticket. Unsure if they were reading it correctly, he handed it to her to double check. After scanning the ticket with the Maryland Lottery app, the message “See Retailer” appeared, confirming that this was no ordinary win.
“When I realized the amount, I almost broke down in tears,” she recalled. “I’ve played for years, and it’s truly a dream come true to finally win something like this.”
As for her plans for the $50,000 prize, the lucky winner said she’s ready to retire her old vehicle of more than 15 years and purchase a new car. She says she and her husband plan to continue their weekend Lottery tradition.
The winning Break the Bank ticket was purchased at the Weis Market at 30015 Three Notch Road in Charlotte Hall. The retailer receives a $500 bonus.

Mega Millions jackpot hits $965 million, once again flirting with the big B – New York Daily News

Mega Millions is once again flirting with the billion-dollar mark, with Friday’s potential jackpot at $965 million after no tickets matched all six numbers on Tuesday, lottery officials said.
Tuesday night’s numbers were 10, 13, 40, 42 and 46, with a gold Mega Ball of 1. Friday’s estimated jackpot is already the eighth largest since the game’s 2002 inception, with the seven above it topping $1 billion, Mega Millions said in a statement.
This will be a record 40th drawing for a single run, lottery officials noted, since the last time all six numbers were matched was on June 27 in Virginia, to the tune of $348 million. The anonymous winner claimed their windfall — a cool pre-tax cash option of $155.6 million — in August.
Although no one snagged the biggest prize on Tuesday, 809,030 tickets nationwide won at least something, with those winnings totaling nearly $30 million overall, the lottery office said. Three tickets that matched the five white ball numbers netted more than a million dollars each, including a lucky New Yorker who won $3 million.
Mega Millions has posted more prizes yielding higher winnings since it tweaked its formula in April and started charging $5 per ticket instead of $2. Jackpots now reset to $50 million after a big win instead of the previous $20 million, and smaller prizes offer built-in multipliers that increase winnings as much as tenfold.

Kanwariyas To Get Digital Assistance With New QR Code Facility In Haridwar – ETV Bharat

Published : July 2, 2025 at 6:23 PM IST
Haridwar: Haridwar police have launched a QR code-based information system ahead of the Kanwar Yatra 2025 to improve pilgrimage convenience. Officials said that the QR code will serve as a one-stop platform for accessing essential services, traffic updates, and emergency contact details throughout the Yatra.
Senior Superintendent of Police (SSP), Haridwar, Parmendra Dobhal announced that the QR code will provide comprehensive digital access to all key facilities for devotees arriving in Haridwar to collect River Ganga water.
“Once scanned, this QR will redirect users to a platform where they can access critical information like direct official contact numbers, route maps, parking areas, and the layout of the fairgrounds,” added Dobhal.
With the Kanwar Yatra scheduled to begin on July 11, preparations are in full swing as the authorities anticipate a significant increase in footfall this year. Officials said that the QR will be made available at all entry points into Haridwar. They said that these codes will also be distributed across neighbouring districts, ensuring pilgrims receive necessary updates.
SSP Dobhal said, “This initiative is part of our efforts to ensure a safe, smooth and digitally empowered pilgrimage experience for all Kanwariyas. The system will include details on traffic movements, emergency helplines, hotel options, and many more to help decongest the roads and improve crowd management.”
