Did you buy a lottery ticket in Livingston last March? You may want to check.

A $10,000 Mega Millions prize won in March is about to expire. Unless claimed by Friday, the prize will be transferred to the State of Montana General Fund.

The winning ticket was for the March 30 draw and was purchased in Livingston from the Town Pump at 716 E. Park St. The winning numbers were: 2-4-23-38-46 and Mega Ball 23.

Lotto prizes must be claimed within six months of the draw for which the winning ticket is eligible. Since Sept. 30 is a Sunday and the Montana Lottery will be closed, the effective last day to claim the prize is Friday, Sept. 28.

Prizes of more than $599.99 must be claimed at Montana Lottery headquarters, 2525 N. Montana Ave., Helena, during regular business hours. Prizes may also be claimed by mail.

Ticket holders should immediately sign the backs of their tickets to establish ownership.
