A lucky ticket sold in New Jersey matched all five white balls for a $1 million win
Newark: A ticket sold in New Jersey just scored a cool $1 million in the latest Powerball drawing. How awesome is that? The ticket matched all five white balls, which is no small feat!
Right now, we don’t know exactly where in the Garden State this winning ticket was sold. But you can bet that whoever bought it is feeling pretty lucky!
And if you’re wondering about the jackpot, it’s climbing up to an estimated $285 million for the next drawing. That’s a lot of cash! The last jackpot was won back in December when someone in New York took home $256 million.
So, if you’re thinking about trying your luck, remember that Powerball drawings happen three times a week—Monday, Wednesday, and Saturday. Just make sure to grab your ticket before the deadline!
Tickets are pretty easy to get. You can find them at gas stations, convenience stores, and even some grocery stores. Or, if you prefer, you can order them online through the Jackpocket app in several states.
Just a heads up, though: the odds of winning that jackpot are pretty steep—292 million to one! But hey, someone’s got to win eventually, right?
