Are you an avid lottery player? Is it your first time and you don't know where to begin?

The Florida Lottery releases data on its scratch-off ticket winners when they claim prizes worth several thousands dollars or up to several million dollars. These lottery tickets are typically sold at grocery stores, gas stations and other convenience stores.

So far in 2024, 27 winning lottery tickets have been sold at Publix locations throughout Florida, according to Florida Lottery data. The majority of these winners played the $1,000,000 A Year for Life Spectacular scratch-off game.

It should be noted that of the 90 scratch-off games currently available to play in Florida (10 games were discontinued in April), 28 of them offer a top prize of at least $1 million. The largest jackpot is for 500X The Cash at $25 million; there are two top prizes and neither have been won yet.
