Mega Millions lottery ticket worth $1m still unclaimed and winning slip was purchased at a QuikTrip store
Players are being advised to verify their numbers as a whopping $1 million winning lottery ticket has not yet been claimed.
The Mega Millions ticket was bought at a QuikTrip store in Missouri, and because the draw was six weeks ago, the winner’s window of opportunity to collect the money was gradually closing.
The ticket was bought in Kansas City at a QuikTrip location located at 10150 N.E. Cookingham Road.
5, 17, 35, 55, and 69 were the winning numbers, with 19 being the last one.
The winner of any prize above $5,001 must pick up their award in person.
They frequently require their Social Security card with them, and they must bring a valid ID with their name and address on it.

A winner from Camden, Delaware, has another Mega Millions ticket that has not been claimed.
Prior to the draw on August 20, the ticket was offered for sale at a Redner’s Market location.
The gambler spent an additional dollar on the Megaplier, and the jackpot matched all five white Mega Millionsballs.
One Mega Millions player was only one number away from winning a $690 million jackpot when this happened.
However, a state regulation that reduced their award dealt them a hit.
In order to win their wealth in the game of chance, the gambler defied odds of about one in twelve million.
Normally, they would have won at least $1 million if they had matched five numbers in Friday’s draw.
However, according to The Island Packet, they only received $359,992.
This is due to the fact that in California, prize distribution is determined by the number of tickets sold and the winners.
