New Jersey Lottery players are celebrating a wave of significant Powerball prizes as the game’s jackpot swells to an impressive $501 million.Saturday’s winning numbers were 07, 14, 23, 24, and 60.
The Power Ball was 14, and the multiplier was 02. While no ticket nationwide matched all six numbers to claim the jackpot, two lucky New Jersey players, one from Warren County and another from Bergen County, each won $100,000 by matching four white balls, the Powerball, and the multiplier.
According to New Jersey Lottery officials, the Warren County ticket was purchased at Hackettstown Exxon on Naughtright Road, while the Bergen County ticket came from Flavor Mart on Garden Street in Carlstadt.
Another Garden State player matched four white balls and the Powerball without the multiplier to win $50,000.
In the Double Play drawing, which offers a separate $10 million top prize for those who opt in, the winning numbers were 05, 22, 26, 29, and 40, with a Double Play ball of 06. One New Jersey ticket scored a $50,000 win, while 12 others each claimed $500.
Saturday’s wins come on the heels of a strong week for the state’s Powerball players.
On Wednesday, a Bergen County ticket purchased at Quick Chek in Carlstadt earned $1 million, and a Sussex County ticket sold at a Newton Quick Chek claimed $50,000.
The $1 million prize marked New Jersey’s third such Powerball win of the year.
