It's so exciting to think about how a routine trip to your local supermarket can end up changing your life completely.
There's always that dream of winning big, but for this New Jersey lottery player, that dream has become a reality!
I have to say, after hearing about this latest winner, I stopped at Wawa to pick up a scratch-off ticket, thinking maybe today would be my lucky day.
NOPE. I LOST.
NorthJersey.com reports the Jersey Cash 5 winning numbers for Wednesday, April 16th were: 22, 23, 27, 30, and 34 with Xtra: 02 and Bulleseye: 27. It was the Stop & Shop on Route 27 in Franklin Park, Somerset County, that sold the winning ticket, and the retailer will also receive some cash - a nice $2,000 bonus just for selling the ticket.
Congratulations!!
