Madera store sells $800,000 lotto ticket
The Mega Millions Jackpot is up to a not-too-shabby $150 million dollars, but just Friday night, someone who bought a ticket in the Valley came close to cashing in.

FRESNO, Calif. (KFSN) -- The Mega Millions Jackpot is up to a not-too-shabby $150 million, but just Friday night, someone who bought a ticket in the Valley came close to cashing in.

The Six Star Food Mart in Madera sold a ticket matching all five regular numbers, but not the Mega number, so that ticket is worth $822,380.

The store's owner comes out a winner too, winning a little more than $4,000 for selling the big ticket.
