Susan Maxwell of Arlington is the winner of a $1 million prize in the Massachusetts State Lottery’s “15,000,000 Money Maker” instant ticket game.

Maxwell opted to receive her prize in the form of a one-time payment of $650,000 (before taxes). She said she fully retired on October 1, not because of this win, it was just time. She said she plans to use some of her winnings to help her kids, grandkids and great grandkids.

Her winning ticket was purchased at Arlington Convenience, 245 Mass. Ave. in Arlington. The store will receive a $10,000 bonus for its sale of this ticket.
