Winning Lottery Ticket Sold in Edison

Edison, NJ - Time to check your pockets! A winning lottery ticket was sold in an Edison deli earlier this week, the New Jersey Lottery announced.

The winning Powerball ticket was sold at Deli Expressions, 2595 Woodbridge Avenue in Edison. That ticket matched four of the five balls drawn in the Wednesday night drawing: The winning numbers for the drawing were: 05, 10, 24, 56 and 61. The ticket won the $50,000 third-tier prize, so if you haven't claimed it yet, check your pockets now!

Past NJ lottery winners, like this 39-year-old Clark man, tell Patch what it's like to win the lottery and, from the store owner's perspective, what it's like to sell a $50,000 winning lottery ticket.

If that ticket had been purchased with the Power Play Multiplier option, it would have been worth $100,000. The Powerball jackpot rolls to $170,000,000 for the next drawing to be held Saturday at 10:59 p.m.
