Dylan Jacobus from Otis won the '$2,500 a Week for Life' lottery grand prize and opted for a one-time payment of $2 million before taxes. He intends to use the winnings to support his expectant wife and their first child. The winning ticket was purchased at Big Y Express in Westfield, which will receive a $26,000 bonus for the sale. Choosing the cash option means Jacobus forgoes the weekly payments of $2,500 for life.
