Million-dollar Mega Millions ticket expires; prize goes to state school aid fund

Posted About Two Months Ago

A $1 million winning Mega Millions ticket expired Friday, and the prize went to the state School Aid Fund.

The ticket expired at 4:45 p.m. on Friday. It was purchased at the CVS Pharmacy, located at 18130 West 10 Mile Road in Southfield.

“Providing quality public education for every child in Michigan is critical, and this $1 million windfall is wonderful news for the School Aid Fund,” said Lottery Commissioner, Suzanna Shkreli. “On the rare occasions big prizes go unclaimed, it is good to know that they benefit the School Aid Fund and schoolchildren throughout Michigan.”

Mega Millions tickets are valid for one year from the drawing date.

The record for an unclaimed Lottery prize in Michigan was set in 1998 when a $34 million prize went unclaimed. The winning Michigan Lotto game ticket was purchased at the Meijer located at 1350 West Lake Lansing Road in East Lansing.
