Check your tickets. A winning Powerball game was sold at a Food Lion in South Carolina

The person who recently bought a Powerball ticket at a Food Lion in the Midlands came up empty in Wednesday’s regular drawing, but they were just one number shy of winning the grand prize in the night’s Double Play drawing, South Carolina Education Lottery officials said Thursday in a news release.

For coming so close in the Double Play event, the ticket buyer will be rewarded with a $50,000 Powerball prize , according to the release.

Now the search is underway for the winner.

The five-figure winning Powerball game was sold at the Food Lion grocery store at 7241 Broad River Road in Irmo , officials said. That’s near Lake Murray Boulevard and Exit 102 on Interstate 26.

For an additional dollar, players can add Double Play to their Powerball ticket for another chance to match their Powerball numbers in a separate drawing, with a $10 million grand prize at stake, according to the release. Double Play drawings are held after the Powerball drawings on Mondays, Wednesdays and Saturdays, officials said.

The winning numbers in Wednesday’s Double Play drawing were 29, 35, 41, 53, 68 and Powerball: 9.

The odds of matching four white numbers and the red Powerball number are 1-in-913,129, officials said.

The winner has 180 days to claim the prize, according to lottery officials.

The winner will be allowed to retain some privacy, as South Carolina is one of 11 states — along with Arizona, Delaware, Georgia, Kansas, Maryland, New Jersey, North Dakota, Ohio, Texas and Virginia — that allow lottery winners to remain anonymous .

“Sign the back of your ticket and put it in a safe location until you’re ready to come forward to claim the prize,” lottery officials said.

When the ticket is claimed, the Food Lion supermarket is expected to receive a commission for selling the winning game.

With no grand prize winner, the jackpot for Saturday night’s Powerball drawing has increased to $437 million , officials said.

Anyone looking to buy a ticket must make a purchase by 9:59 p.m. Monday for the 10:59 p.m. drawing. Tickets are $2, and could cost more with additional options.

The odds of winning Powerball’s grand prize are 1-in-293 million.
