JACKSONVILLE, Florida – A Cash4Life ticket sold in Florida won the second-tier prize in the Wednesday, February 18, 2026, drawing, according to the Florida Lottery. The ticket matched all five numbers—03, 28, 38, 40, 49—but not the Cash Ball, 01, winning $1,000 a week for life. The drawing had no winners for the top prize of $1,000 a day for life. The fortunate Duval County winner now faces a life-altering decision: accept the weekly payments, which amount to $52,000 annually for life (guaranteed for a minimum of 20 years), or choose a one-time lump-sum payment of $1 million. The winning ticket was sold at a RaceTrac gas station located at 6913 103rd Street in Jacksonville. In the February 18 drawing, there were 11,362 total winners.
