A $1 million winning Powerball ticket was purchased at a Wall Township store this past week, according to lottery officials.

In the Saturday, Dec. 30 Powerball drawing, the New Jersey Lottery ticket matched the 5 white balls drawn to win the $1 million second-prize. If that ticket had been purchased with the Power Play Multiplier option, it would have doubled the prize to $2 million.

The winning ticket was purchased in Monmouth County at Wawa, 2432 Highway #35, in Wall.

The Powerball Jackpot is now on the record list for top ten largest Powerball jackpots ever at $440 million.

The winning numbers for the Saturday, Dec. 30 drawing were: 28, 36, 41, 51 and 58. The Red Power Ball number was 24. The Multiplier number was 02. The next drawing will be held Wednesday at 10:59 p.m.

“Join the crowds flocking to lottery retailers across New Jersey and get your tickets for tonight’s Mega Millions $343 million and Wednesday’s $440 million Powerball drawings,” said John M. White, New Jersey Lottery acting executive director. “You’ll have two chances for these sky high jackpots and you just might start out the year as a ‘Mega Millionaire’ in 2018.”
