I'm not sure about all the rest, but........

I'd get a large order of my favorite chinese takeout.
(Of course, I've done this before, but this time I'd do it without guilt)

Spend a few days or so just thinking about all the things I might buy now that I could afford to.

Take the prize in one lump sum. Think about investing in gold or such (because I don't trust the Gov't to be responsible about our currency). In a few years the dollar may be nearly worthless.

Almost forgot, have the roof fixed.
