Two $2 Million CA Lottery Tickets Set to Expire Soon; Public Schools Benefit if Winners Do Not Come Forward
RELEASE DATE: 8/27/2024
SACRAMENTO – The clock is ticking for two California Lottery winners to come forward and
claim their winning tickets, each worth more than $2 million.
A Mega Millions ticket that correctly matched five of six numbers and is worth $2,151,945 will
expire this weekend on Sunday, September 1. Someone bought that ticket at the Stater Bros.
at 69255 Ramon Road in Cathedral City for the March 5 drawing earlier this year; it matched
the numbers 2, 49, 50, 61, and 70, missing the Mega number 14.
Since the ticket expires on a Sunday, anyone with that winning ticket has until 5 p.m. Friday,
August 30 to bring the ticket to one of California Lottery’s nine offices across the state. The
winner can also fill out a claim form
found here, and attach the winning ticket and mail it in to
California Lottery Headquarters in Sacramento as long as it has a postmark on or before this
Saturday, August 31.
