The winner of last weekend’s massive lottery drawing has not come forward yet. However, the official Mega Millions lottery website reports on one lucky New Bedford woman who recently brought home a cool $1 million:

“August 11, 2014 - Patricia Oliveira of New Bedford, Mass., is the winner of a $1 million prize in the multi-state Mega Millions drawing held Friday, August 8, 2014.

“Oliveira claimed her $1 million prize (less taxes) on Monday, August 11 at Massachusetts Lottery headquarters in Braintree. She intends to use her winnings to support charitable causes, help her family and invest.

“The winning ticket was purchased at Quick Pic Mini Mart, 452 Cottage Street in New Bedford. The store will receive a $10,000 bonus on the sale.”

The Mega Millions lottery also explains what to do if you win:

“What if you win the jackpot? Annuity option: The Mega Millions annuity is paid out as one immediate payment followed by 29 annual payments. Each payment is 5% bigger than the previous one. We used to pay the jackpot in equal installments, but players expressed concern that the cost of living would be increasing while their payments were not. We changed to payments that increase each year to help protect winners’ lifestyle and purchasing power.”
