$25,000 a Year for Life Ticket Sold Locally

Someone in or near Cranston is having one heck of a good Christmas.

A Lucky for Life winning ticket was sold at Another Liquor Store at 311 Warwick Ave. in Cranston recently. 

That means someone woke up on Christmas eve holding a ticket that will pay them $25,000 per year — for the rest of their life.

It's just the second $25,000 per-year win in Rhode Island since the state lottery launched the game in March 2012. 

Lucky for Life's top prize is $1,000 per day for life, but we'd be happy with $25,000 per year as a consolation prize.

The winning ticket matched five numbers but came short of the grand prize by missing the Lucky Ball number.
