  • The same store recently sold a $499,853 winning ticket
  • Winners have 90 days to claim prizes on instant games in Georgia

Lady Luck seems to have taken up residence at a small store in Blairsville, Georgia. The Nottely Food Mart has become the talk of the town after selling two significant winning lottery tickets in quick succession.

The Georgia Lottery announced that a player who purchased a $30 '2nd Edition Billionaire Club' scratcher from the store hit the jackpot, winning a cool $1 million. This win comes hot on the heels of another substantial payout from the same location.

Just days earlier, on March 19, another lucky player scooped $499,853 on a '100X The Money Quick Win' ticket from the Nottely Food Mart. The odds of winning this progressive rolling jackpot were a staggering 1 in 240,000.

The million-dollar winner, a Blairsville resident, claimed their prize on March 20. Opting for the lump sum payment, they walked away with $535,398.06 before taxes.

For lottery enthusiasts eyeing these instant games, it's crucial to note that winners in Georgia have a 90-day window from the game's expiration date to claim their prizes. The Georgia Lottery advises all winners to sign the back of their tickets promptly as a security measure.

Blairsville, the site of these recent wins, is located about 100 miles northeast of Atlanta. While these wins have brought excitement to the small town, it's important to remember that for some, gambling can become problematic.

If you or someone you know shows signs of gambling addiction, help is available. The National Problem Gambling Helpline can be reached at 1-800-522-4700, and additional resources are available on the National Council on Problem Gambling website.

As the lottery community buzzes with news of these wins, players across Georgia may be feeling a little more hopeful about their chances. However, it's always wise to play responsibly and within one's means, remembering that while lightning can strike twice, as evidenced in Blairsville, the odds are always in the house's favor.
