Prince George's County woman wins $2 million Maryland Lottery scratch-off prize
A Riverdale grocery stop became a $2 million payday after a Prince George’s County woman hit the top prize on a $30 Maryland Lottery scratch-off.

A Prince George’s County grocery stop turned into a $2 million windfall when a woman bought a 200X the Cash scratch-off at Riggs Grocery on Kenilworth Avenue in Riverdale and landed the game’s top prize. Maryland Lottery later identified the store as Riggs Grocery at 5405 Kenilworth Avenue, and the winner and her husband claimed the prize at Lottery headquarters in Baltimore.
The size of the win instantly changes the financial picture for a local household. The winner said she plans to pay off her mortgage, invest and travel overseas to visit family, a list that puts the prize to work in very practical ways. Her husband’s reaction, Maryland Lottery said, made clear how hard it was to process that the ticket had really hit for $2 million.
The prize also puts the odds in context. 200X the Cash launched on December 5, 2025 as a $30 ticket with 40 chances to win and 1-in-2.84 odds of winning overall at launch. The game started with five $2 million top prizes, and three of those prizes remained after this Riverdale win, leaving more big tickets still in circulation for Maryland players. Non-winning tickets can also be entered into a second-chance promotion through July 6, 2026.

For Riggs Grocery, the payoff was immediate too. Maryland Lottery said the store receives a $2,000 bonus for selling the winning ticket, a small but meaningful boost for a neighborhood business on a busy stretch of Kenilworth Avenue. The lottery also said the Riverdale ticket was the largest prize of the past week in its April 13 winners roundup, giving Prince George’s County an outsized place in that statewide snapshot.
Big lottery wins tend to travel fast through a county because they mix luck, place and everyday routine. In this case, a routine stop at a local grocery store in Riverdale produced the kind of prize that can erase debt, build savings and reshape a family’s future, while also sending a bonus to the store that sold the ticket.
