$1,000 A Day CASH4LIFE Ticket Sold At Florida Publix
Although we don’t know who it is yet, we do know that someone in Florida just won $1,000 a day for life with a winning CASH4LIFE Ticket. That’s a $365,000 check every year – for life. Not a bad score, right?
What’s a CASH4LIFE Ticket?
Because Powerball and Mega Millions get so much attention when their jackpots grow, CASH4LIFE can get overlooked. One of the reasons is – the top prize stays the same. To play, select five numbers from 1 through 60. Then, select your Cash Ball number from 1 through 4. A base ticket is $2 and they do the drawing daily at 9pm. That’s right, this game plays every night.
If you can match all 5 numbers and the Cash Ball, you win $1,000 a day for life or a one time payment of 7 million. If you get the 5 numbers but miss the Cash Ball, it’s $1,000 a week for life.
Monday night’s winning numbers were 8-25-33-38-46 and a Cash Ball of 2. Someone in St. Cloud, Florida bought a CASH4LIFE ticket at a Publix and hit the jackpot. All 5 plus the Cash Ball. Because the drawing just happened last night, we don’t know who it is or whether they’ll be taking the cash option of 7 milly. And what were the odds on that win? 1 in 21,846,048. Well done!
St. Cloud, Florida is about 25 miles south of Orlando bordering Lake Tohopekaliga. Do I know how to pronounce Lake Tohopekaliga? No, I do not.
Florida Lottery Choices
A CASH4LIFE ticket, just like Powerball, is actually a national lottery. Normally I stick to the Florida Lottery scratch offs since I’m able to do research on them. In late July, I mapped out the 7 Florida Lottery scratch offs that still had all the big winners left. Then I picked up a $20 Gold Rush Legacy from the Publix in Estero and won $200. The data is now 2 weeks old, but here’s what I did:
The 7 Florida Lottery Scratch Offs With All Top Prizes Remaining
7 is often viewed as a lucky number, so when I saw that there were 7 Florida Lottery Scratch Offs with all their top prizes still unclaimed, I saw it as a sign. It’s time to take a look at some Florida Lottery tickets that could score big. One note – this data is as of 7/24/24, so these tickets that I’ll mention have all their winners out there as of today. It’s always possible that someone is holding a winner that hasn’t cashed it in yet.
Losing Money On Florida Lottery Scratch Offs
There is one ticket on this list I’m very familiar with, because I tried and failed. It’s the $50 500X The Cash ticket with a grand prize of $25 million. It has a secondary prize of $1 million that has been hitting. In July this ticket has had million dollar winners in Ocala, Hollywood, and Fort Myers. 2 of those winners were bought at Publix. So I dropped a hundred down on two tickets at the Publix in Estero and got – absolutely nothing. Losing a hundred bucks on lottery tickets stings a bit. But, you can’t have big winners if you don’t have losers. And that was me.
$1 Million A Year For Life
An update on this particular game. There’s 2 big winning tickets for the ‘Million a Year For Life’ and one of them has been claimed. MARQUIS ALLEN ANDERSON of Fort Lauderdale, Florida won the big prize. A million dollars a year for the rest of your life. Marquis took the cash option and got the lump sum of 16 million. That’s a tough decision.
The 7 Florida Lottery Scratch Offs With All Top Prizes Remaining
So let’s get to why we’re here. As of today there are 7 Florida Lottery Scratch Off tickets with all of their top prizes still on the board. As I learned, using this method doesn’t guarantee you a winner, it just means that no one has hit big, yet. Good luck. All information is courtesy of the Florida Lottery website.
$20 MONOPOLY™ SECRET VAULT
The Florida Lottery issued several new Monopoly games on July 1st. This is the $20 one. 4 people can claim a $5 million dollar grand prize, and no one has yet.
$10 MONOPOLY™ SECRET VAULT
EDIT: As I was writing this article, this ticket updated and showed that one of the four $2 million dollar winning tickets had been claimed. The winning ticket was sold at the Speedway on Palm Beach Blvd in Fort Myers. So – 3 of the 4 big winners are still out there.
$5 MONOPOLY™ SECRET VAULT
For 6 lucky scratchers, $5 can get you a million. Like the other Monopoly cards, this one just came out so there’s not a lot of data on them. The Monopoly cards are always popular, so I’d definitely expect to see these at the counter.
$2 MONOPOLY™ SECRET VAULT
I love the $2 tickets because they’re great for gift giving. Shove 5 of these in a birthday card and you are good. Want to really feel good? Hand some out at a nursing home. 8 grand prize winners will win $100,000.
$1 MONOPOLY™ SECRET VAULT
A big thank you to the Florida Lottery for still making $1 tickets. I wouldn’t blame them if they didn’t, with inflation, their profit margin on these cannot be great. The same things I said about the $2 tickets holds true with the $1 ones. Great for gifts. EDIT: Ok, so 2 of the 20 $10,000 grand prize tickets have been claimed. One in Boynton Beach at a Publix, and one in Haines City at a 7-11. So, 18 of the 20 top prizes remain.
GOLD RUSH LEGACY
Ok, let’s get away from the Monopoly games and on to this one. It’s a bit of an outlier in that the game came out in April and none of the four $10 million dollar grand prizes have been claimed, yet. The secondary prize of $1 million still has 17 of the 20 winning tickets out there. It’s a $20 ticket that seems to not be hitting. Is it due? Who knows. I’m just putting out the data, but I do plan on looking for this one when I go to Publix tonight. Wish me luck.
500X THE CASH
There’s my nemesis. I dropped a hundred dollars picking up 2 of these and won nothing. The game has two $25 million dollar winning tickets out there and 121 of 160 of the $1 million dollar winning tickets yet to be claimed. The Florida Lottery released this game back in January, so it’s not new. It’s just that no one has hit it big yet.
