Unclaimed lottery tickets worth more than $230,000

If you had lottery tickets for Saturday night drawings, you’re going to want to check your tickets – especially if you had a Wild Money ticket.

An unclaimed ticket for Rhode Island’s progressive jackpot game hit the Wild Money jackpot – and it will make the ticket holder $201,288.14 richer. The winning ticket was purchased from Capital Liquors, at 811 Park Ave. in Cranston, according to the Rhode Island Lottery.

Two other tickets sold in Rhode Island for Saturday drawings – PowerBall, this time – were also winners.

Both matched four numbers and the PowerBall number. One ticket is worth $10,000, the standard payout, and one is worth $20,000 because the person who bought it opted to buy the Power Play feature, which doubles the typical prize by the Power Play number – 2 – on Saturday.

The $20,000 ticket was purchased at Cumberland Farms, 94 Aquidneck Ave. in Middletown. The $10,000 ticket was bought at Tiverton Liquors on Main Road in Tiverton.
