KEY POINTS:
A significant lottery prize remains unclaimed, and will expire in just over a month.
The $500,000 was won on a ticket bought at Countdown in Kaiapoi on June 30 last year. The owner still has not fronted up.
Lotto CEO Todd McLeay says up to three percent of prizes go unclaimed every year and this First Division payout could well be one of them.
He is encouraging anyone who may have bought a ticket in Kaiapoi around that date to check everywhere for it.
