BAY COUNTY, Fla. - A quick stop at a grocery store turned into a life-changing errand for one Florida woman after winning $1 million!
Pamela Lavigne, 61, of Southport, says she stopped to pick up some dinner for her family at the Winn-Dixie at 1812 South Highway 77 in Lynn Haven. Before heading home, she decided to try her luck on THE FASTEST ROAD TO $1,000,000 Scratch-off game.

Lavigne chose to receive her winnings as a one-time, lump-sum payment of $790,000.
The retailer will receive a $2,000 bonus commission for selling the winning ticket.
