Massachusetts man has plans to move after hitting $4 million on State Lottery instant game

A Massachusetts man’s son has reason to smile after revealing some of the purchases he plans to make after hitting big money on a State Lottery scratch ticket.

According to the Massachusetts State Lottery, Alfred Duquette of Bridgewater is the first $4 million grand prize winner in the Massachusetts State Lottery’s new “100X” $10 instant ticket game that went on sale Tuesday, June 10.

Duquette, who was joined by his wife Jessica when claiming his prize at the Lottery’s Dorchester headquarters, opted to receive his prize in the form of a one-time payment of $2,600,000 (before taxes). He said he plans on purchasing a home as well as a trampoline for his son.

He purchased his winning ticket at Jay’s Market, 359 Bedford St. in Whitman. The store receives a $40,000 bonus for its sale of this ticket.

The “100X” instant ticket includes two more instant grand prizes of $4 million as well as seven $1 million prizes.
