A Springfield convenience store is celebrating another big lottery win just days after a nearby Hy-Vee sold a $1 billion Powerball jackpot ticket.

A Lucky Day Lotto player hit all five numbers in the Monday, August 17, midday drawing, winning more than $500,000, according to the Illinois Lottery.

The lucky ticket was purchased at Hy-Vee Fast & Fresh, 1025 Outer Park Drive in Springfield.
