Twenty-three days and counting.
That’s how long a winning lottery ticket worth $1 million, purchased in B.C. last year, has before it expires.
So if you purchased a ticket in Maple Ridge last Sept. 28, 2022, the B.C. Lottery Corporation is encouraging people to check their wallets, purses, couches, junk drawers and vehicles for the seven-figure ticket.
The ticket will expire on midnight on that Thursday. All lottery prize winners have 52 weeks from the draw date printed on their ticket to claim their prize.
The winning number for the Gold Ball Draw was 12299795-01.
