New Jersey won big this week in Wednesday’s Powerball drawing, with nearly $4,000,000 in winning tickets sold across the Garden State.
A $2,000,000 ticket was sold in Westfield at the Krauszer’s Food Store located at 727 Central Avenue. That ticket matched five balls and hit the 2x multiplier.
A second major win was hit in Middlesex County, where a lucky person matched 5 balls but did not match the multiplier, winning $1,000,000.
Several smaller prizes were announced by the lottery commission. Three $50,000 tickets were sold across the state.
One ticket was sold at the 7-11 on Cedar Lane in Teaneck. Another was sold at News Plus on Mule Road in Toms River. A third ticket was sold at the Woodstown Conoco gas station in Pilesgrove.
$288,430 in smaller prizes were awarded across the state ranging from $4 to $300. There was no jackpot winner and the next drawing for Saturday is now worth $550 million.
