CLIVE, Iowa (KWQC) - Someone who bought a lottery ticket at a Davenport convenience store won a prize of $25,000 a year for life Monday in the Lucky for Life® game. The big win came just a handful of days after a Cedar Rapids couple claimed the same prize from one of the game’s earlier drawings.

The ticket sold at the Kwik Star at 1225 E. Kimberly Road, matched the first five numbers but missed the Lucky Ball in Monday night’s drawing to win Lucky for Life’s second prize of $25,000 a year for life, according to a press release by the IA Lottery. It is Iowa’s 14th big winner in the game since it debuted in January 2016 in our state.

A Cedar Rapids couple claimed the same prize on June 22, after winning the drawing on Nov. 4, according to the release. Chuck and Sherry Thomas said they had known since shortly after the drawing they had won, and they purposefully waited to claim their prize until they had a plan in place for their winnings.

Lucky for Life is a $2 game with drawings each night. The game’s top two prize levels are described as “lasting as long as you do,” meaning they are truly for life.

The release said the winning numbers in Monday’s Lucky for Life drawing were: 2-12-16-29-40 and Lucky Ball 13. Kwik Star will receive a $500 bonus from the lottery for selling the winning ticket.

Prizes at the top two levels in Lucky for Life must be claimed at Iowa Lottery headquarters in Clive. Full details are available on the lottery’s website here.
