Cape May County Wawa Store Sells Million-Dollar New Jersey Lottery Scratch Ticket

One lottery winner won a life-changing windfall at a Cape May County convenience store. A Wawa store in Villas, Lower Township, sold a $1 million New Jersey Lottery “100X” scratch-off ticket, officials said.

Lottery officials said the winning ticket was bought at Bayshore Road’s Wawa on Thursday. One of the top $20 scratch-off winners was the ticket. The win is one of the game’s biggest prizes since its launch this year.

Instead of taking the award over several years, the winner took the lump sum. Lump sum settlement was $576,800. One possibility for top prize recipients was 25 $40,000 monthly installments. The cash choice gave the recipient a considerable amount of the prize instantly.

Lottery officials verified that large rewards remain. Two of the three $1 million top prizes in the “100X” scratch-off game have not been claimed. Players around New Jersey can still win the game’s top prize.

The “100X” scratch-off game started in January. At game start, over 7.3 million tickets were printed and distributed statewide. Convenience stores, supermarkets, and lottery dealers sell these scratch-off games.

The game offered 24 $10,000 prizes in addition to the million-dollar rewards. The lottery says 22 of those $10,000 prizes are still available, offering players many chances to win big even if they don’t win the jackpot.

Players like scratch-off lottery games because the results are presented promptly. After scratching the ticket, players can discover if they won without waiting for a drawing. This speedy result structure has made scratch-off games a popular lottery product in many states, including New Jersey.

A million-dollar ticket sale represents a milestone for Lower Township Wawa. Customers looking to buy winning lottery tickets from the same store generally pay more attention.

The winner’s name is unknown, but the purchase has made headlines in Cape May County. Lottery players in New Jersey may keep playing the “100X” scratch-off game to win one of two top prizes.

Players are reminded by the New Jersey Lottery to check their tickets and claim winnings properly. So long as top prizes go unclaimed, the game will keep presenting chances to win.
