A Kroger in Sugar Hill, Georgia sold a $1 million "Millionaire Maker" ticket

A $30 Millionaire Maker scratch-off sold at the Kroger at 6001 Cumming Highway in Sugar Hill, Georgia won a $1 million top prize, WSB-TV reported Wednesday. The Georgia Lottery winner, who was not named, chose the lump-sum cash option and will receive $505,685.

Millionaire Maker went on sale in May 2025 with 19 top prizes of $1 million in about 9.1 million tickets, about 1 in 481,000 per ticket. Georgia Lottery data listed 10 of the 19 as unclaimed on October 21, a count that may not include this win yet. About 53% of the tickets have sold. The game has paid out across the state, including a Soperton winner in April whose ticket came from Wrightsville.

It returns 83.5% of sales as prizes, second among Georgia's seven active $30 games against their 82.1% average, with overall odds of 1 in 2.53, and it rates 79.8 on our ValueScore™. Georgia players claimed $35,011,388 in scratch-off prizes last week, the lottery said. On Tuesday, a Cedartown resident won $42,180 on the Shields of Valhalla Diggi game, which our data lists with a $25,000 top prize, a Canton player won $60,000 on Keno! online, and a Georgia FIVE ticket from the Exxon Food Mart at 537 Glynn Street in Fayetteville hit the $10,000 top prize in the October 20 midday drawing. How Diggi wins can top a game's listed prize is covered in our guide to Georgia's online games.
