When's the last time you cleaned out your wallet or purse? Well, if it's been awhile, this story may inspire you to start cleaning.

Lottery officials say that a man from Alto, Michigan had a winning Powerball ticket in his wallet for two months before he realized it was a winning ticket worth $1 million. According to the Detroit News, 53-year-old Daniel Chase said that he always puts tickets in his wallet after buying them and checks on them "after a while". He discovered the million dollar ticket last week and it was purchased for the drawing on December 16th in Alma. (I guess that qualifies for 'after a while').
