TRENTON (April 5, 2019) – A representative of The Five Lucky Women LLC came to NJ Lottery Headquarters in Lawrenceville recently to claim a prize from the March 16, 2019 Powerball drawing.

The Five Lucky Women LLC are a group of hard-working administrative assistants who have worked together for a long time and who play lottery games when the jackpots get high. For the March 16th drawing, the group had purchased some Quick Pick tickets and, after realizing no one had won the jackpot, they checked their tickets to see if there might be a winner for one of the lower tier prizes. To their surprise, there was a $1 million winner in the pack.

The woman representing the group said “I’d have been happy to win even $100. It’s being at the right place at the right time; it’s the luck of the draw. We’re good people; we work hard and we had a little bit come back our way.”

When asked what she is planning to do with her share of the money, paying off some debt and maybe taking a trip was her reply.

The winning ticket was sold at Baldwin News & Food Store, 138 Baldwin Rd., Parsippany in Morris County.
