Springfield Shopper Wins $100K Mass Cash Prize with $1 Ticket

Someone in Springfield just turned a simple $1 ticket into a $100,000 win—not a bad day at the grocery store.

The lucky ticket was picked up at Big Y on St. James Ave and hit big in Tuesday’s midday Mass Cash drawing. The winning combo for April 28? 1, 7, 20, 29, 35—and one ticket matched them all.

Here’s what makes this game stand out:

  • ? Tickets cost just $1
  • ? Drawings happen twice daily
  • ? Match all five numbers to grab the $100K top prize

And the wins didn’t stop there. Across Massachusetts, it was a busy day for lottery players:

  • 495+ prizes worth $600 or more were claimed
  • Springfield: 16 winners
  • Worcester: 16 winners
  • Boston: 55 winners

If you’re tracking big payouts, here’s a standout from this year:

  • ? A massive $25 million prize was claimed from a “$25,000,000 Mega Money” ticket sold at a gas station in Turners Falls

 

Every day, the state lottery shares a list of winners scoring $600 or more—so if you’ve got a ticket lying around, it might be worth a second look.
