Three $50K Powerball Winning Tickets Sold in Monmouth County
Three Monmouth County retailers sold Powerball tickets that won $50,000 in the January 13 drawing, according to a press release by the NJ Lottery.
Penny Pantry Food Store, located at 4345 Route 9 North in Freehold, Keansburg Drugs, 119 Main St., Keansburg, and Welsh Farms, 130 Route 33 W., in Manalapan each sold tickets that match four of five numbers and the Powerball. The winning numbers were 4,8,19,27,34 and the Powerball was 10.
Two tickets that matched the five winning numbers but not the Powerball were sold in New Jersey. A ticket sold at the Wawa on Spingside Rd in Westhampton, Burlington County is worth $2 million to the player who bet and extra dollar and match the powerplay. A $1 million ticket matching five numbers without the powerplay was sold at the 7-11 on Buckelew Ave in Jamesburg, Middlesex County.
The record breaking jackpot of $1.586 billion (cash value of $983.5 million before taxes) will be split between the holders of three winning tickets sold in California, Florida and Tennessee.
This article has the wrong number listed. It’s supposed to be 19…not 9. I almost threw my ticket out and double checked the NJ Lottery site and won $27.
