June 9 (UPI) -- A Michigan woman who "had an urge" to buy a lottery ticket while out and about ended up winning a prize of $100,000 a year for life.
The 66-year-old Charlevoix County woman told Michigan Lottery officials the May 21 drawing was not the first time she has played Millionaire for Life.
"I've been playing Millionaire For Life on and off since the game started earlier this year," the player said. "I had an urge to buy a ticket while I was out and about one day, so I went to the closest store and bought one."
She stopped at the Mancelona North EZ Mart on U.S. Highway 131 Northeast in Mancelona and bought a ticket bearing the numbers 03-15-16-24-28.
