The store will get a $10,000 bonus for selling the lucky ticket in the $3,000,000 Golden Ticket game , which costs $30 to play.

In its announcement, the lottery said, "Scratch-Offs are distributed at random, meaning the Pennsylvania Lottery and its retailers do not know where winning tickets will be sold. The lottery learns where winning tickets are sold only after a prize has been claimed."
