A customer at a San Juan convenience store won big after playing the Texas Two Step lottery.

H&H Food Mart, located at 914 Sam Houston Blvd. in San Juan, sold a winning lottery ticket worth $1.1 million, according to a news release.

The winning ticket was sold for the drawing held on Thursday, March 20.

“I think this is the luckiest store in the Valley,” H&H Food Mart Owner Saju Peter said, adding that the attention on his store was desperately needed.

"Stripes and all these [stores] opening everywhere, so here in the Valley now it's very difficult for independent owners,” Peter said, adding that H&H food Mart has also sold several smaller winning tickets over the years.

According to the Texas Lottery, the ticket sold at H&H food Mart was one of two winning tickets, meaning that the winners will have to split the $1.1 million prize.

The other ticket was sold at a store in the city of Burkburnett.

According to Peter, his store has seen an increase in customers since the winning ticket was bought there.
