You May Already Be a Winner

If you bought a lottery ticket at a 7-11 in Shoreline last month--and just haven't bothered to check the numbers yet—DO! Because you just might have a scrap of paper floating around with nearly $10 million. A single winner has yet to claim their $9.7 million in winnings from July 26th's state lotto. You have 180 days to claim a winning lotto ticket, but with current interest rates, every month you wait to claim your winnings could cost you $10,000 in interest. Of course, now that you're a big lotto winner, that's chump change to you.
