A Marysville resident may be $10,000 richer and not know it

OLYMPIA—Washington’s Lottery is encouraging players to double check their lottery tickets, as there are two $10,000 Match 4 prizes expiring in October.

One winning ticket was purchased in Marysville at WinCo Foods located at 3947 116th St NE and expires on October 22. The second winning ticket was purchased in Graham at the Safeway located at 10105 224th St E and expires on October 27.

Players hoping to claim their prize should check their ticket and collect their winnings at one of the regional offices of Washington’s Lottery. Prizes may be claimed any time prior to 5 p.m. the day that the ticket expires.

There are currently 14 large prizes valued at $10,000 or more, totaling more than $1.4 million, that are set to expire soon. The full list of unclaimed prizes – including a $1 million Mega Millions prize from a ticket purchased in Brewster – can be found here.

Winning players have 180 days from the drawing date to claim their prize. If the player won with a Scratch ticket, they have 180 days from the last day of ticket sales to claim their prize. By law, the prizes that aren’t claimed are placed into a reserve account. Each June, the surplus in the reserve account is transferred to the Washington Opportunity Pathways Account (WOPA), which supports education in Washington State. WOPA helps college students across the state achieve their dreams and supports early childhood education programs. More information on how lottery ticket sales support programs across Washington can be found at www.walottery.com/WhoBenefits/.

Washington’s Lottery has regional offices located in Everett, Federal Way, Olympia, Spokane, Tri-Cities and Vancouver, which are open to the public to claim prizes Mon-Fri from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. Winners with prizes of $100,000 or more are instructed to call the nearest Lottery office to schedule an appointment to make a safe and secure in-person claim.
