GLASFORD -- A Glasford couple is taking home a good chunk of change from this week's mega millions drawing.

Andy and Candy Heisel are the winners of $250,000.

Andy said he doesn't usually play the lottery, but the local Casey's store manager talked him into buying a ticket.

After taxes, the couple will take away $175,000.

The Heisels said they are still in shock. Andy tells us how he found out the news. "It was like 6 o'clock Monday night when I came in and they were like 'Oh my God, you're the winner,' because the store had already known they sold the winning ticket. I had no idea and I'm like what? Winner of what? 'you're the winner of the 250,000 dollars,' it's like um, really?"

The couple said they plan to take a vacation to Hawaii, make a few repairs to their home and save the rest of their winnings.
