You know that crumpled up Powerball ticket you figured would amount to nothing but bought because you found money in your couch?

It could be worth $50,000 if you bought it from Reemi’s liquor and tobacco store at 2712 Powder Springs Road in Marietta.

The Georgia Lottery said the ticket hasn’t been claimed from the Wednesday drawing.

The numbers were 1-10-27-28-36, and the Powerball was 12. Powerball winners have 180 days from the date of the drawing to claim prizes.

The Powerball jackpot for the Saturday drawing is up to an estimated $130 million for a lump sum winner.
