MORRIS COUNTY — A New Jersey Lottery player in Morris County won $1,000,000 on Friday, November 6, in the New Jersey $1 Million Premier CA$H Scratch-Off game. Two of the game’s top prizes remain.
The winner, a regular Lottery player, bought his $20 ticket at the Netcong Valero, 10 Route 46 East, Netcong.
“I never thought I would win,” the winner said. “I scratched it off right there and I said, ‘Holy God, I think I won a million dollars!'”
While the winner has chosen to remain anonymous, he shared that the prize will help pay off the house and purchase a car.
The win comes on the heels of an $847,000,000 winning ticket sold at Wegmans Food Market, 100 Farm View, Montvale, in Bergen County, two days earlier on Wednesday, November 4. Also in Bergen County, a Jersey Cash 5 ticket worth $717,734 was sold at Fort Lee Tiger Mart, 1616 Bergen Boulevard, Fort Lee.
Other top prizes last week included a $200,000 Powerball winner, four $50,000 Powerball winners and a $50,000 Payday winner. Click here for more information on last week’s prizes.
