A lone Lewisville shopper has kicked off 2026 in style, becoming the first person to hit the $1 million jackpot in the Texas Lottery’s $1,000,000 Ca$h! instant game-leaving three grand prizes still in play across the state.
The Winning Ticket
Texas Lottery officials say the ticket was purchased at Deer Run Food Mart on W. Round Grove Road and was validated on January 2. The winner chose to stay anonymous.
After federal withholding of roughly $370,000, the claimant will receive about $630,000; Texas does not impose a state tax on lottery winnings.

As of January 9, 2026, the remaining prize pool includes:
- 3 top prizes of $1 million
- 33 prizes of $5,000
- Smaller awards of $2,000, $500, $200, $100, $50, and $20
