Lottery tickets that won $250,000 and $37,000 on Tuesday were sold in the Miami area

Tuesday wasn’t an ordinary day for two Florida Lottery players in Miami-Dade, one of whom won $250,000.

The Mega Millions jackpot will be $324 million for Friday’s drawing and nobody won the big Cash4Life prizes. But Jackpot Triple Play’s 3, 9, 23, 36, 39, and 46 were on a Quick Pick ticket from the Shell at 20195 S. Dixie Hwy. in Cutler Bay. That’s the $250,000 pile of good luck.

While nobody got all the Fantasy 5 midday draw numbers, the evening draw of 3, 16, 20, 23, 26 was on a Quick Pick ticket bought at at Miami Price Choice Foodmarket, 1490 NW Third Ave. as well as tickets from a Kissimme RaceTrac station and a Middleburg Union 76 station. Each ticket is worth $37,619.

These tickets need to be cashed at a Florida Lottery district office or the main office in Tallahassee, which are open 8:30 a.m. to 4 p.m., Monday through Friday. Appointments can be made, but aren’t required. The Miami district office is at 14621 Oak Lane in Miami Lakes and can be reached at 305-364-3080 or MIARC@flalottery.com.
