Winning Lotto Ticket Sold at Hackettstown Store Set to Shut Down in February

Baron’s Hallmark store in Hackettstown is going out with one last hurrah before it shuts its doors for good.

The 43-year-old business sold one of two winning Jersey Cash 5 tickets for Tuesday’s drawing, according to the New Jersey Lottery Commission. A second winning ticket was sold in Riverdale with a jackpot of $78,134. Each ticket will claim half the prize and bring in $39,067.

The winning numbers for Tuesday’s drawing were 8, 9, 21, 29, and 37.

Each store will receive $2,000 for selling a winning ticket.

The Morris County area has been a hotbed of lottery winnings recently. In Monday’s Jersey Cash 5 drawing, a $423,000 winning ticket was sold in East Hanover.

Baron’s Hallmark announced recently it was closing its doors after four decades. While no specific date has been set, the store has been liquidating and expects to close sometime in February.
