A woman in western Massachusetts won a $100,000 lottery prize after finding her ticket in a junk drawer just before it was about to expire.

Margot Garstka got her $1 Mass Cash ticket at a supermarket in Chicopee back in April 2024 during a state lottery promotion.

She brought the ticket home and tossed it in the drawer next to a couple of screwdrivers.
