Jan. 9 (UPI) -- A Massachusetts man won a $1 million lottery prize less than five months after his wife won the same amount from a national sweepstakes.

Robert Goodwin of Randolph told Massachusetts Lottery officials he bought his $5 scratch off ticket, $1,000,000 Platinum Payout, from Fast Lane Convenience in Holbrook.

The ticket won Goodwin a $1 million prize.

Goodwin said the jackpot came just over four months after his wife won $1 million from the Publisher's Clearing House sweepstakes.

The married millionaires said they plan to use their winnings to move into an over-55 community.

"No more shoveling," Goodwin said.
