BOSTON --
A retired Massachusetts firefighter who's been buying lottery tickets for years still can't believe how lucky he's been.
First, he won $10,000 on a $20 Billion Dollar Bonanza scratch ticket a few weeks ago, but the bigger surprise was when he picked up another scratch ticket at a convenience store last weekend and discovered he had won another prize worth $1 million.
Leo F. Dominie was a firefighter for 30 years and retired in 1990. He told the Worcester Telegram & Gazette newspaper that the winnings would provide a nice retirement cushion for him.
The father of five said his wife, Claudette, could barely believe it when she saw him scratch the $1 million ticket and discover the winning numbers.
The couple will receive $50,000 annually for 20 years before taxes but they said they're not planning to change their lifestyle too much. They said they might take a cruise and have a party with family and friends after the holidays, but otherwise it'll pretty much be business as usual.
