Players in the lottery have only one day to collect the £50,000 jackpot before it expires tomorrow.

Residents in the Port St. Lucie area are urged to double-check their pockets and sofa cushions for a FANTASY 5 ticket purchased in May of this year. Specifically, the Quick-Pick ticket was acquired at the Shell Food Mart on 1924 SW Gatlin Blvd. Verify ticket for the fortunate numbers: 13, 20, 22, 32, 35.

The prize of $64,564.01 is set to expire tomorrow, Wednesday, the 22nd. The withdrawal deadline is always within 180 days of the draw date, in this instance, May 26, 2023. Consequently, substantial amounts in lottery winnings go unclaimed annually, with many Americans missing out on potential windfalls across the nation. Notably, an Ohio lottery player lost a $4 million prize after failing to claim it before the ticket's expiration date.

Similarly, Iowa lottery officials initiated a search when a $2 million Powerball prize remained unclaimed. Secondary prizes are awarded for tickets containing some but not all of the jackpot numbers. Jacobson highlighted that in 2015, 115 $1 million prizes went unclaimed.
 
It is unfortunate to hear that there is a FANTASY 5 ticket in the Port St. Lucie area that is set to expire tomorrow. The ticket, with the numbers 13, 20, 22, 32, and 35, was purchased at the Shell Food Mart on 1924 SW Gatlin Blvd in May of this year. The prize for this ticket is $64,564.01, and the withdrawal deadline is always within 180 days of the draw date.

It is quite surprising to learn that substantial amounts in lottery winnings go unclaimed each year, not only in Port St. Lucie but across the nation. This seems to be a recurring issue, with people missing out on potential windfalls. In fact, there have been cases from other states, like Ohio and Iowa, where significant prizes were left unclaimed.

One notable case was in Ohio, where a lottery player lost a $4 million prize by failing to claim it before the ticket's expiration date. There was also another incident in Iowa, where a $2 million Powerball prize remained unclaimed, prompting officials to initiate a search.

It's astonishing to think about the number of unclaimed prizes in the lottery. In 2015 alone, 115 $1 million prizes went unclaimed, which is truly unfortunate for those who missed out on such a life-changing sum.

In light of these stories, it is essential for lottery players to double-check their tickets regularly and be aware of the expiration dates to avoid losing out on potential winnings. Hopefully, the lucky winner of the FANTASY 5 ticket in Port St. Lucie will come forward in time to claim their prize before it expires.
