Winning $260 Million Mega Millions Ticket Bought In Blue Island

CHICAGO (CBS) -- The winning ticket in Tuesday night's $260 million Mega Millions game was sold at a south suburban convenience store.

The winning ticket was sold at Supermercado Imelda at 13036 S. Western Av. in Blue Island.

"It's fantastic; fantastic that we won," manager Dolores Diaz said.

Diaz said she has no idea who the winning player is, and until Wednesday, wasn't even aware of the store's $500,000 bonus for selling the winning ticket.

"That's great. I didn't know that," she said.

Diaz said that would help her pay a lot of bills.
