The Illinois Lottery wants you to check your lottery results, especially if you just happened to buy a Lucky Day Lotto ticket earlier this week. The lottery reported that one person has won $400,000, and the hunt to identify the winner has begun.
As is customary, the Illinois Lottery has already had some information and details ready to share with the public, not least to encourage people to check if they have won a six-figure prize. The winning numbers for the Tuesday, August 12 evening draw were: 3, 4, 6, 8, and 41.
As to the winning ticket, it was sold at Walker Liquor at 12255 Walker Rd in Lemont and is one of 19,000 winning tickets sold for the recent draw. Yet not all other tickets have won as much as $400,000.
The vendor that sold the ticket is also in for a treat, getting a respectable $4,000 prize from the lottery. Even if the winner doesn’t step forward any time soon, the good news is they have one year from the date of the drawing to show up and scoop the reward!
Lucky Day Lotto is a very popular game that offers thousands of rewards every day and features two daily drawings! All jackpots start at $100,000, making it quite a worthwhile lottery game with a huge chance of success!
As usual, though, playing the lottery often could lead to being a little negligent about your tickets. This is why the Illinois Lottery urges frequent reminders for lottery players to organize their play and tickets and develop a habit of storing them safely.
About a month ago, another big winner was crowned in Illinois, with a person winning $1m from the Lotto game. The winning numbers at the time were 5, 11, 16, 23, 25, and 39.
