At least one person won Powerball jackpot

Bauer said he plans to use the money to pay off his and his wife’s student loans, and to help their parents. As the briefing was taking place, customers were buying groceries. Once they come forward, lottery winners can expect to receive their first payment within six to eight weeks.

The California ticket was sold at a 7-Eleven in Chino Hills, California, lottery spokesman Alex Traverso told The Associated Press.

The Florida Lottery said in addition to their jackpot victor, 11 people won $1 million and one person won $2 million.

Under the rules, a victor has up to a year to do so. Texas Lottery Executive Director Gary Grief said that Powerball offered the world’s biggest jackpot, and he offered advice for the winners. Although the organization is proud of its contributions to public schools, California Lottery spokesperson Russ Lopez stated it’s not completely up to the lottery to fund public education.

The cycle will start again on Saturday night when the next Powerball drawing will have an estimated jackpot of $US40 million. It was not immediately clear which retailer had sold the winning ticket and would get a $25,000 check.

The Maryland Lottery announced late Wednesday that three $1-million tickets were sold in the state.

It is not only about the final winners, but also about the lucky stores that sold those victor tickets.

Earlier Thursday, a man who bought a ticket in Pacoima that matched five numbers, but not the Powerball number of 10, came forward to claim his prize.

Thursday morning, franchise owner Babir Atwal was beaming from ear to ear as California Lottery officials presented him with the giant check Thursday morning.

The lucky convenience store owner will have to share a portion of the proceeds with 7-Eleven. He now owns four stores. Many chanted “Chino Hills!”

Kathryn went to work and mentioned that she was going to throw out her ticket since she heard there were no jackpot winners in Maryland.

The California store and its surrounding strip mall suddenly became a popular gathering spot in the rural suburb of 78,000, where cows still graze on hillsides.

Each of the winning tickets is worth $528.8 million to the holders, lottery officials said in California, one of 44 states plus Washington D.C. and two US territories that sold millions of Powerball tickets. He said he was sure he had personally sold the ticket.

Linda Windey, a Parish, NY, native who was staying with relatives in OH due to her temporary job with eBay, purchased three Powerball tickets at Cincinnati South Travel Center on Richmond Road in Walton, Kentucky.

The winning numbers were 4, 8, 19, 27 and 34, with 10 as the so-called Powerball number.

In Connecticut, 350,629 winning tickets were sold with prizes ranging from $4 to $1 million.

Balbir Atwal says he didn’t know the ticket was purchased at his store until he turned on the TV. The real estate broker bought 20 tickets.

“You get a lot of new players with a large jackpot”, Lopez said.
