BALTIMORE — Maryland Lottery players continue rolling in the dough.
Last week three people won more than $8 million throughout the state.
On June 24 an Essex woman hit the $5 million jackpot playing its namesake $5,000,000 Fortune.
The $50 scratch-off ticket was purchased at the Back River Exxon gas station.
At first glance, the woman was content winning what she thought was $50,000. Upon closer review, she missed a couple zeroes.
Plans are to buy a new home and cars for herself and daughter.
“She gets her Jeep. I get my Jeep," the woman told Lottery officials.
Luck spread to Cecil County where another woman took home $1 million playing a Lucky 777 scratch-off.
That ticket was purchased from Acme at 101 Big Elk Mall in Elkton.
Not wanting to draw attention to herself, the anonymous winner is planning on donating some of the money, and using the rest on travel and home improvements.
Last but not least, someone bought a Gold Rush Progressive ticket at Mutt’s Liquors, on Indian Head Highway in Prince George's County, which turned out to be worth over two million bucks.
They've yet to claim their prize.
