This retailer bonus comes from a separate fund and is not subtracted from winner’s prize.
Because of the size of this win, officials said the retailer has also earned a spot on the California Lottery’s list of Lucky Retailers.
The California Lottery urges last night’s winner to immediately sign the back of his/her ticket in ink, keep it in a safe place and visit any of the nine Lottery District Offices during business hours as soon as possible. The winner has 180 days from the date of the draw to claim this prize. Otherwise the money will be redirected to help California public schools.
