A Queens Food Bazaar sold a $2 million winning lottery ticket this week.
The Powerball ticket was snagged at a Long Island City Food Bazaar, located at 42-02 Northern Blvd. on Wednesday. The ticket, which is worth a guaranteed $2 million, is yet to be claimed, according to the New York State Gaming Commission.

The winning ticket is the third to be sold in the borough within the last seven days.

Now the winner can afford to shop at Whole Foods.
@ABoondy- from 2.907 percent to 3.876 percent. Depends on which bracket you fall
