If You Bought a Winning Ticket Here
Stop & Shop #018 has sold a winning Scratch — $10,000,000 INSTANT MILLIONS ticket, but that history says nothing about the ticket in your pocket — every draw is independent, and this store's odds on the next ticket are identical to those of any other licensed retailer in MA. If you do have a winner, here's what actually determines your payout.
MA withholds 5% in state tax from lottery prizes. Federal withholding adds another 24% on any single prize over $5,000. On privacy, anonymous via trust only in Massachusetts: No blanket anonymity law, but prizes can be claimed in the name of a trust.
Sign the back of the ticket right away — that alone establishes you as the owner if it's ever lost or disputed. Small prizes can typically be cashed at Stop & Shop #018 itself or any other licensed retailer in MA; larger prizes and any jackpot-tier win require an in-person visit to an official Massachusetts Lottery claim center with the signed ticket and a valid photo ID. Take a photo and a photocopy of the signed ticket before you go, and hold off on any big decisions — lump sum vs. annuity, who to tell, whether to bring in a financial advisor — until you've had a few days to think it through.
