Five New Jersey Players Win Big from Scratch-off Games
The players won prizes between $250,000 and $1 million per person over the span of less than a week
Currently, the New Jersey Lottery offers a total of 75 different scratch-off games that vary in price starting from $1.00 per ticket up to $30.00 per play. The popular scratch-off games grant players a chance to win mouth-watering prizes and only recently, in a matter of a single week, incredibly fortunate players scored several such wins.
7-Eleven Lottery Player Wins $600K, Another Player Scores $1M Win
Between December 9 and December 15, 2024, two incredibly lucky scratch-off players won $1 million prizes each, while three scored prizes of more than $250,000 each.
The Lottery confirmed that the latest win came on December 15 when a Colossal Crossword player scored the game’s $600,000 top prize. The fortunate person who purchased their ticket at 7-Eleven in Hackensack, Bergen County, turned a $30 ticket into a mind-blowing $600,000 win.
Not much else is known about the lucky winner who will undoubtedly always remember the visit to 7-Eleven. After the $600,000 win, only one such top prize remains in play from the Colossal Crossword scratch-off game.
Before that, on December 14, a Camden County player turned a $20 ticket into a million-dollar windfall. That’s the case of a $1,000,000 Diamond Spectacular player who bought their winning ticket at Ashland Food Market in Cherry Hill. To their surprise, the winner scored the game’s top prize for a sweet $1,000,000 payout.
The $1,000,000 Diamond Spectacular scratch-off game launched near the end of July last year. While initially, there were three top prizes, the latest win marked the last top prize from the popular scratch off game.
Three More Players Enjoy Hefty Wins
Earlier last week, two other New Jersey players scored hefty prizes on the same day, December 12, 2024. A player who purchased their ticket from Uncle Tony’s Stationery in Hawthorne was pleasantly surprised by a hefty win from the $250,000 Crossword scratch-off game. The Passaic County player’s $10 ticket turned out to be a $250,000 top prize.
As noted, on the same day another player won big. That’s the case for a 100X Cash Blitz player. The lucky lottery aficionado bought their winning ticket at Wolfson’s Market in Lincoln Park, Morris County. The $20 100X Cash Blitz ticket holder will undoubtedly always remember buying this ticket as it brought the player a mind-blowing $1 million prize.
The 100X Cash Blitz is part of a popular series that offers a range of different prizes. The game in question launched on August 31, 2024, and the latest $1 million win marked the first top prize scored from the popular game. With that in mind, two other top prizes are up for grabs from the $20 scratch-off game.
Besides the $1 million win, a final, fifth player also scored a huge lottery prize. That’s the case of a lucky player who purchased a Neon Cash Party ticket from Shell Fuel Stop in Carteret. The lucky winner’s $10 ticket turned out to be a $500,000 top prize win from the popular game.
