I spent $20 on scratch-offs this week and won… five bucks. Not great. But I’ll take it.

Feeling ? You’re not the only one.

Someone in Spring, Texas woke up $3 million richer after hitting big on the 500X Loteria Spectacular.

The winning ticket came from B&B News & More on Westheimer in Houston. The person who won is staying anonymous, but let’s be real, they’re probably doing cartwheels somewhere.

This was one of four top prizes for that $50 game. Now only one $3 million ticket is left. That’s it. If you’ve got a lucky store, a lucky number, or just a weird gut feeling… now might be the time.

And it’s not just Spring cashing in:

•In Austin, someone just won $5 million on the Luxe ticket.

•Back in February, a $2 million Mega Millions ticket hit in Dallas.

•A $25,000 Cash Five ticket was sold in San Antonio in June.

•Wichita Falls had an $825,000 Texas Two-Step winner that same week.

The big wins are stacking up, and this summer’s been full of ‘em. The Texas Lottery keeps a running list of all the recent payouts,  and if you scroll through it, the wins feel a little closer to home.

No, really. Even in Victoria, people all around have won top prizes, I even know a few.

Not saying you should drop your whole paycheck on scratch-offs. But if you’re already at the counter… and the machine’s calling your name…

Might be worth a shot. Especially if you’re anywhere near B&B News & More. Although I’ve heard through the grapevine, Rosenberg is the luckiest city.
