14 New Jersey Lottery players just won $1 million or more — here’s where
I don't know about you, but I get excited when I win $10 from a scratch-off lottery ticket. Given my track record of winning lottery jackpots, that's a big deal.
However, 14 other people in the state can define "big deal" much better since they recently won at least a million bucks.
Officials with the New Jersey Lottery released a list of big jackpot winners for the third quarter of this year (July, August, and September) and over a dozen people won jackpots ranging from one to four million dollars.
In total, those 14 folks won a total of nearly $19.9 million, before taxes, of course.
We'll run down a list of where those big winning lottery tickets were sold, but first, remember that lottery officials are still waiting for the person who won the state's largest jackpot to come forward.
On March 26th of this year, one lucky person hit the big Mega Millions jackpot of $1.13 billion. That ticket was sold at ShopRite on Route 66 in Neptune, Monmouth County.
As of November, that person has yet to claim the money and they have one year to do so.
