If you play the lotto, or even if you don't usually but are feeling lucky, you might want to head to one of the Michigan stores that have had the most success when it comes to selling winning lotto tickets.

So, where to shop? In Michigan, the winning stores are actually spread out all over the state.

According to the Michigan Lottery, the Michigan store that sold the biggest lotto ticket in November was Polly's #12 in Chelsea. They sold a $2 million Mega Millions tickets. Not bad! The second biggest November ticket was sold at Mac's Vandyke Mini Mart in Detroit. It was a Lotto 47 for $1.15 million, which is a pretty sweet prize, too.

In October, the biggest Michigan ticket was sold at Dore's Party Store in Kawkawlin. I honestly have never heard of that city, but now I'll have to check it out. If you live here, hit me up and tell me about the city! That ticket was sold at Dore's Party Store #8, and it was a Lotto 47 worth $1.63 million. Other big prizes came from 7-Eleven 33142 in Romulus, Wesco #68 in Spring Lake, the Meijer #242 Cash Office in Lenox, Red Caboose Wine Shop in Hamtramck and Miller Point Mark in Flint.
