204 Kroger locations officially licensed to sell lottery tickets in Michigan, sourced directly from the state's official open-data portal. 🏆 2 of them are verified prize-winning stores.
Every Kroger location listed above holds a valid license from the Michigan Lottery to sell tickets, meaning the store has passed the state's retailer requirements and reports its lottery sales the same way any other licensed dealer does. As a national or regional chain, Kroger locations tend to offer fairly consistent hours and a full lineup of whatever draw games and scratch-offs Michigan currently runs, though exact selection and hours vary a bit store-to-store — it's always worth a quick call if you're timing a purchase around a jackpot deadline.
2 Kroger locations in Michigan have a documented history of selling a winning ticket. That's a reflection of how many tickets these stores move — chains with more locations and more foot traffic naturally accumulate more wins over time — rather than any location having better odds. Every ticket at every Kroger in Michigan carries the exact same odds as a ticket bought anywhere else in the state.
If a ticket from one of these locations pays off, small prizes can usually be cashed right at the register where you bought it. Larger prizes require a trip to an official Michigan Lottery claim center with the signed ticket and a government-issued photo ID — the store itself won't be able to pay out a jackpot-sized win.
