Local Lottery Winning Ticket Worth Half A Million...Is It You?

Imagine you just won a ton of moolah, cheddar, dough, loot, scratch...you know...MONEY! I'll go so far as to say it is a pile of money...are YOU the winner of a half a million dollars? Someone in Jersey has an extra half a mil today...NICE.

I'm kind of loving all the local lottery winners lately! Of course we had an Ocean County winner in Lanoka Harbor just a few weeks ago. Now we have another winner, this one for almost a half a million dollars!

It all went to one lucky winner...

The ticket was purchased at Bilow Wine & Liquors in Neptune City and it was worth $500,000! Now that's a good Wednesday morning!

The ticket matching all five numbers drawn was purchased on Tuesday, winning the $490,183 Jersey Cash 5 jackpot. Was it YOU?

The winning numbers were: 06, 15, 19, 40, and 42, and the XTRA number was: 03.

Bilow Wine & Liquors are happy too...they get $2,000 for selling the winning ticket!

As of 2020 lottery winners in New Jersey have the option to remain anonymous. Let's face it, not all of us want the attention that goes along with winning or the long lost relatives asking for you to fund their next business venture. LOL. If you shopped at this store this week check your tickets!!!!!!!!!!!! Good luck!
