Lottery luck hit Hilltown Township in a big way after a 200X the Cash scratch-off ticket worth $1 million was sold at the Giant supermarket at 760 Route 113 in Bucks County. The store will collect a $5,000 bonus for selling the winning ticket. The 200X the Cash game is a $20 instant ticket with a top prize of $1 million, making it one of the higher-priced options in the Pennsylvania Lottery’s scratch-off lineup.
The Pennsylvania Lottery did not say whether the $1 million prize has been claimed. Officials reminded players that scratch-off prizes expire one year from the game’s end-sale date and advised anyone with a potentially big winner to sign the back of the ticket and call the Lottery to start the claims process. As reported by NBC10 Philadelphia, the Hilltown Giant was specifically named as the retailer that sold the lucky ticket.
About 200X the Cash
200X the Cash is a $20 instant game with a top prize of $1 million. Official filings for the game in the Pennsylvania Bulletin spell out the prize structure and confirm that top prizes are paid as lump-sum awards. Those filings also show the game was printed in large quantities, at roughly 9,000,000 tickets, and include details about odds and any second-chance drawings. The documents emphasize that scratch-off outcomes are random and that neither the Pennsylvania Lottery nor retailers know in advance where top prizes will be sold. Pennsylvania Bulletin

Local ripple effects
When a big scratch-off win hits, word tends to spread quickly.
