The estimated jackpot for the lucky ticket purchased at Eddie's Liquor Jr. Market in Bellflower was $35 million.

For the lucky ticket holder who purchased a winning Mega Millions lotto ticket from Eddie's Liquor Jr. Market in Bellflower, this holiday season has just become a whole lot brighter.
A single ticket with all six numbers in Friday night's multi-state Mega Millions draw was sold at the liquor store at 15105 Clark Ave., and now the lotto winner must decide whether to accept the estimated cash value of $26.7 million or receive 26 annual payments of approximately $1.34 million each before taxes.
Two other tickets -- one each sold in Louisiana and Ohio -- had five numbers, but didn't have the Mega number and are each worth $250,000, a California Lottery official announced after the Dec. 14 draw.
