A Virginia family is splitting a $1 million lottery jackpot after a New Year’s Millionaire Raffle ticket purchased as a stocking stuffer turned out to be a big winner.

Jennifer Wanamaker purchased some New Year’s Millionaire Raffle tickets from a Wegman’s store and put them into her family’s Christmas stockings.

The ticket placed in the stocking for her daughter, Caitlin, turned out to be a $1 million winner in the New Year’s Day raffle.

Caitlin said she is splitting the $1 million prize with her parents, Jennifer and Patrick, and her twin sister, Alison.

“If one person wins, we all win.”
