CHICAGO – Someone in Illinois might be handing out full-size candy bars this Halloween! A lucky Illinois Lottery player purchased a Lucky Day Lotto ticket that struck the jackpot worth $1.2 million in the Friday, October 27 midday drawing.

The ticket was purchased at Jewel Osco, located at 2940 N. Ashland Avenue in Chicago.

The winning ticket matched all five numbers in the Friday midday drawing to score the $1.2 million jackpot. The winning numbers were: 14-15-24-25-34.
