Winning Ticket Was In The Garbage!

Tuesday, December 23rd, 2008

A lucky winner of a multi-million dollar lottery jackpot didn’t even buy his ticket.

He found it in the garbage.

Well, near it at least.

The 18 year old English teenager worked in a local super market taking care of the front end. While tidying up the front of the store found a quick pick ticket on the floor. After leaving it with the customer service desk all day without being claimed, they let him take it and try his luck.

Turns out it was a lot of luck.

November 22nd Powerball Winner Takes The Cash

Monday, December 22nd, 2008

After weeks without a sound, the winner of the November 22nd Powerball drawing has come forward anonymously and claimed the cash value of their prize, a total of $30.8 million and change!

The delay was a result of the winner taking the time to speak with financial advisors and legal councilors to best manage his winnings, as well as let the incredible win sink in.

The lottery staff said the man had played the Powerball Lottery regularly for years, though hadn’t bought a ticket recently in the past several months. Deciding to give it another shot, the man certainly chose a good moment to get back into the game!

New Jersey Family Wins $126 Million in Megamillions

Friday, December 19th, 2008

The Lopes family has finally come forward to claim their $126 million in winnings from a drawing in July.

“We’re really excited to have the Lopes with us today to help us ‘open’ this bank and celebrate their win and our new games for the holidays,” said William T. Jourdain, Acting Executive Director of the New Jersey Lottery. “When we were coming up with our new ‘Wonderful Life’ instant ticket and our “Jersey Jackpot” raffle, we knew we’d be making our players very happy this holiday season—and I think the Lopes family are living proof of that…even if their really big present came in July, rather than this month!”

The family has elected the cash option, which means they’ll be cashing a check for more than $75 million.

“We feel very, very lucky,’’ said Clelia, who purchased the winning ticket, “I was just in the grocery store, making my purchases, like I always have, and on my way out, I bought some Mega Millions tickets—like I always have. It’s still amazing to me what has happened because I made sure to get my tickets that day.”

The family is still deciding how to invest the winnings, having collected a small team of experts to assist them.
