(WKYT)—Lottery tickets are a common stocking stuffer for adults this time of year.For today’s Good Question, Joe asks: “Do scratch-off lottery tickets have an expiration date?”They do, and it’s going to depend on when the game ends.Unlike games like Powerball or Mega Millions, which are valid for 180 days from the date of the drawing, scratch-offs look at the date the game ends.That’s going to be different for each ticket, but the Kentucky Lottery keeps a list of them, along with the prizes remaining for each ticket, on their website.For example, the last date to claim Nutcracker Cash, which will be sold until next September, is March 31, 2026.Money in the unclaimed prize pool goes to the KEES scholarship reserve fund.The lottery says, “Since fiscal year 2003, nearly $119 million in unclaimed prizes has gone to this fund to ensure the financial stability of the program.”If you have a Good Question you’d like us to try to answer, send it to goodquestion@wkyt.com.Copyright 2024 WKYT.
