Shopping at a grocery put more than dinner on the table for a lucky Bonus Match 5 player. A ticket sold by Giant #159 in Baltimore won a $50,000 top prize in the Tuesday, Jan. 26 drawing.

This is our third winning Bonus Match 5 ticket of 2021.
The Baltimore County retailer located at 3757 Old Court Road also has reason to celebrate! The Lottery will give Giant #159 a bonus of $500 for selling a top-prize winning ticket in the game.
Bonus Match 5 drawings take place seven days a week. Players select five numbers ranging from 1 to 39. The Bonus Ball drawn from the remaining 34 numbers provides extra chances to win. Your ticket is a winner if you match five, four or three of the original five winning numbers selected in the drawing. If you match the Bonus Ball number, you only need to match four, three or two of your original numbers to win!
