The organization says someone bought a Lotto ticket in St. Louis County last week that matched all six numbers in Wednesday's drawing. The ticket was purchased at Phillips 66, 301 W. 5th St., with the lucky number combination of 13, 17, 18, 21, 39 and 42.

“If you bought a Missouri Lotto ticket at this Phillips 66 location for the Nov. 24 drawing, please check it carefully,” said May Scheve Reardon, executive director of the Missouri Lottery. “You can scan it on our mobile app or at Check-A-Ticket machines at retail to see if it’s a winner.”

The winner has 180 days from the date of the drawing to claim the prize, which in this case is May 23. The ticket holder may choose between two claiming options: receiving the prize in one lump-sum payment, which is approximately half of the advertised jackpot; or receiving the full amount in 25 annual payments.

If you have the winning ticket, Reardon says you should sign the back of it and keep it in a safe place until ready to claim the prize.

All claims for prizes of more than $600 can be made – by appointment only – at any Missouri Lottery office.
