Powerball lottery ticket worth $250,000 is just days away from expiring in Michigan
The deadline for an unclaimed $250,000 Powerball prize is looming, and the Michigan Lottery is urging the winner to come forward in the next few days.
Winners have a year to claim their prizes, according to the lottery.
The ticket was sold at a Bloomfield Hills Kroger for the March 11, 2024, drawing. The winning ticket matched four of the five white balls, 01, 03, 07, 16 and 66, along with the Powerball, 05, for a $50,000 prize. The Power Play multiplied those winnings to $250,000.
The winner has until 4:45 p.m. March 11 to claim their prize at the Michigan Lottery headquarters in Lansing, about a 70-mile drive southeast from Grand Rapids and 90 miles northwest from Detroit.
If left unclaimed, the $250,000 will be donated to Michigan’s School Aid Fund.
