OLG recently announced that time is running out to claim a Lotto Max prize worth $159,177.80 for a ticket sold a year ago in Brampton.

Players only have one year from the original draw date to claim their prize, so if you’re the lucky ticket holder, the clock is ticking.

Anyone who has this ticket should fill in the back portion, sign it and contact the OLG Prize Centre at 20 Dundas Street West in Toronto before 6:00 p.m. on Monday, March 20.

The OLG Prize Centre is now open Saturdays from 9:00 a.m. to 3:00 p.m., unless Saturday is a statutory holiday or if there is a statutory holiday on the preceding Friday or the following Monday. For full details on Prize Centre hours and services, check out the How to Claim Prizes page on olg.ca.
