A local lottery player has one more Christmas gift to pick up.

A Powerball ticket worth $1 million was sold Wednesday at a gas station in Avondale Estates, the Georgia Lottery said. It was purchased at the Chevron Food Mart at 2767 E. College Ave.

The winner has not yet come forward to claim their prize, but has 180 days to do so. The ticket matched the first five winning numbers in the Christmas Day drawing: 2, 4, 16, 30 and 46.

Another Powerball drawing on Saturday has a jackpot of $200 million.
