Well in Michigan if you were a store and sold a $200,000,000 Mega Millions ticket you would only recieve $2,000. Michigan gives a higher percentage to retailers in general for selling tickets and pays nothing when you sell a winning ticket.Brad

The store is giving about a third of that to charity. A good chunk is for store improvements. Since it happened locally here, it was quite the show when Lisa stepped forward. All over today's front pages.

no wedding date yet, I'm guessing he'll start pushing for one shortly....although Lisa Ensor-Finkenbiener just might be a deal breaker for the newly found millionare!(just kidding)and how about the store employees, wouldn't you think that $70,000 and $35,000 would be a little better from someone recieving $400,000. But I guess because its not my cash it looks a little cheap to me
