Questions
Has a top prize been claimed on a North Carolina scratch-off recently?
Yes. In the last 30 days the North Carolina lottery's published data showed 11 top prizes of $25K or more claimed. The largest was $2M on Ruby Red 7's, first shown on October 20, 2026.
Which North Carolina scratch-offs have no top prize left?
3 North Carolina scratch-offs are on sale with every top prize already claimed, including 100X The Cash, JUMBO BUCKS, Double Your Money. They still pay their smaller prizes, but cannot pay the prize on the poster.
How current is this news?
Each story is written when the North Carolina lottery's own published prize data changes, which this site reads several times a day. Lotteries publish with a lag, so a change can trail the actual claim by a day or more, and the data never says who claimed a prize or where.
Does a claimed top prize make a ticket a better or worse buy?
A game with no top prize left can no longer pay what it advertises, which is worth knowing before you buy. But no scratch-off is a good bet: every game returns less than it takes in, whatever is left in it.
