John Demaggio is scraping for gold or rather --- $50,000. So for him a million is fine.
But John didn't win a million. He did pick up $10 though -- which, really, maybe is for the better.
As a supermarket philosopher Nellie Arrington sums it up.
"So I think something I've learned over the years is that people who've won really, really big is they haven't bought happiness with it,' Arrington said.
One other person in Georgia also won a million dollars. The $50 million drawing is this Wednesday.
