FORT WASHINGTON, MARYLAND – A morning trip to the grocery store helped a Prince George’s County woman fill her bank account with a $50,000 Powerball prize.
The lucky lady bought a $2 quick-pick ticket for the Jan. 26 drawing and later discovered Lottery luck had paid her a visit. The Fort Washington resident claimed the third-tier prize this week at Lottery headquarters in Baltimore. She is one of eight Marylanders who have won $50,000 third-tier Powerball prizes in 2022.
The winner found her fortune with a ticket purchased at Giant #147 located at 9580 Livingston Road in Fort Washington.
Players can take a chance and try their luck playing Powerball, too. The jackpot for the Wednesday, Feb. 2 drawing is an estimated annuity value of $123 million, with an estimated cash option is $84.7 million.
