Someone in Missouri Has Won $179,000 and Doesn’t Know It

If you have any lottery tickets in the floorboard of your vehicle or in your dash, you might want to check them soon as someone in Missouri has won $179,000 and doesn't even know it.

According to the Missouri Lottery, someone on January 10, 2025 stopped by 238 N Fountain Street in Cape Girardeau and picked up a Show Me Cash ticket.

They then chose these winning numbers.

Those numbers were a winner resulting in a payout of $179,000. There's just one very big problem. The person who stopped by this Cape Girardeau place and picked the winning numbers has not come forward which obviously means they don't know they're a winner.

How long do they have to claim this big time winning Missouri Lottery ticket?

The Missouri Lottery Unclaimed Prizes site says this person has until July 9, 2025 to present the ticket so they can get their riches.

I have lots of trash on the floorboard of my vehicle and I'm not proud of it. However, I don't have any lottery tickets, but maybe you do. If this Cape Girardeau place was a stop for you in January and you picked up a ticket, it's time to search through that trash. You might be a lot richer if you do.
