The clock is ticking for one lucky New Jerseyan.
In less than two weeks, a New Jersey Lottery Pick-6 ticket with a multi-million-dollar prize are set to expire.
The ticket — purchased last year — was a $5.9-million jackpot winner, matching all six numbers in the May 22 drawing.
The winning numbers were 20, 21, 30, 31, 24 and 44.
According to the New Jersey Lottery, the ticket was bought at the Eisenhower Exxon along Eagle Rock Avenue in Roseland, Essex County. The ticket has remained unclaimed thus far.
In order for the prize to be received, the owner of the winning Pick-6 ticket must cash in the ticket before May 22, 2026.
With time running out, New Jersey Lottery officials are urging players to check for any forgotten tickets. If the ticket isn’t claimed by May 22, the money will go back into the lottery pool.
Tickets can be checked by scanning them on the New Jersey Lottery app or by entering the numbers on the New Jersey Lottery online ticket checker.
