Deadlines to win $500, $5,000 and $1 million get near

December 26, 2022 Posted by NC Lottery at 5:34 PM

As 2022 draws to a close, so will your chance to start the new year with some extra cash, including a $1 million prize.

Three drawings on Jan. 4 will award prizes of $500, $5,000, $200,000, and $1 million. To have a chance at winning one of those prizes, you must get your entries in by these deadlines.

New Year’s Eve is your deadline to enter our Tis The Season Lucke-Rewards drawing.

The holidays won’t be over until at least Jan.4. That’s when 25 lucky winners will get a present of $5,000 in our monthly drawing.

New Year’s Eve is your deadline to get a chance at $1 million in the 200X The Cash Second Chance Promotion.

You could start 2023 in a big way by winning the $1 million grand prize in this second-chance drawing. The drawing also offers one $200,000 prize and 25 $500 prizes. Get your chance at those prizes with entries from your 200X The Cash scratch-offs. Learn more about the drawing here.

New Year’s Day is your deadline to enter the Party Prizes Lucke-Rewards drawing.

If you miss the deadline for this party, you will miss your chance to win $500 in the last weekly drawing of the month. Three lucky winners will go home with one of the $500 prizes in the Jan. 4 drawing.

Good luck!

NCEL why so many repeats in pick 3 and not pick 4? I know you have an answer.Let us see the same number repeat 3 or more times in pick 4.NC Lottery
Hey there, Shirley! You may see Pick 3 combinations repeat more frequently than Pick 4 combinations because the number of possible combinations in Pick 3 is 1,000, while the number of possible combinations in Pick 4 is 10,000.

Please fix the app so that it accepts $5 Super Loteria tickets for scanning points. I've tried multiple tickets from multiple books and multiple stores, and all the app says is, "Invalid Ticket Submission."NC Lottery
We're so sorry to hear this, Troy! Please reach out to our Online Support team at https://nclottery.com/Help and we can help look into this and get this resolved for you.

In the fall fortune rewards drawing it says the lady is from Beverly Hills,CA. I’m assuming since you can’t purchase online tickets from out of state you can’t enter rewards drawings from out of state!NC Lottery
Hey there, William! Players need to be physically located within our state at the time of purchase to buy NC Lottery tickets, but they do not have to be a permanent resident. Anyone who is travelling through or visiting our state can buy tickets while here and enter them for second chance entries and Lucke-Rewards points!

12/26/2022 08:08 - Gina C.

How about telling us folks the "ODDS" on that 3 "lucky winners" at $500.00 ???????NC Lottery
Hey there, Gina! Your odds would depend on how many entries you have in the drawing, but so far we've received around 587,522 entries in total, so each entry has the odds of 1 in 587,522 for being selected. Good luck!

Hopefully you will draw some different first time winners instead of the repeat winners you usually draw.
