Illinois man wins lottery a second time

A man from Kendall County, Illinois, secured a $550,000 jackpot in the Lucky Day Lotto, matching all five winning numbers. He woke his wife to share the news, causing her to hyperventilate, and they plan to use the winnings for a dream trip to Hawaii and retirement. This marks his second significant win on the Lucky Day Lotto, having previously won $50,000 in 2001. The winning ticket was sold at Plano Liquor and Wine in Plano, Illinois, which will receive a $5,500 bonus. Separately, Michael Perry from Kentucky also won $250,000 after purchasing two Wild Cash 100X scratch-off tickets.
