Someone who bought a Cash 5 ticket at a Moore County convenience store started the week by winning a $1.1 million jackpot.
The winner bought the $1 ticket at Friendly Mart on N.C. 24/27 in Robbins.
The ticket matched all five numbers in Monday’s Cash 5 drawing. The odds of matching numbers on all five balls are 1 in 962,598. The winner has 180 days from the drawing to claim the prize.
The record Cash 5 jackpot stands at $2.1 million and was won in April 2021.
Since the jackpot was won Monday, Tuesday’s jackpot resets to $100,000.
Cash 5 is one of six lottery games in North Carolina where players have the option of buying their tickets at a retail location or with Online Play through the lottery’s website or with the NC Lottery Official Mobile App.
