2 $2 million Powerball tickets bought in Virginia

One of two $2 million winning Powerball tickets in the September 19th drawing was sold in Virginia Beach, Virginia Lottery officials announced Monday. The other ticket was bought at a Wawa store in Virginia Beach. That store will also receive a $10,000 bonus from the Virginia Lottery. “I couldn’t believe that it was actually real”.

His wife had a similar reaction: “It just didn’t register”, she said. “I couldn’t even believe it”.

The second-largest Powerball jackpot just got a little bigger over the weekend, rising from $208 million to $235 million.

The winning numbers in Saturday’s drawing were 12-17-26-43-48 and the Powerball number was 24.

Four tickets purchased in Iowa have now won $1 million prizes in 2015, all of them in the Powerball game.

No one hit either the Powerball or Mega Millions jackpots this weekend, but someone who bought a ticket in New Jersey for the latter drawing did the next best thing. “I couldn’t leave them hanging”. The Power Play® option is available for an extra $1 per play.
