$1M Lottery Ticket Sold In Monmouth County

LONG BRANCH, NJ — A lottery player in Monmouth County won a $1 million scratch-off prize.

The ticket was sold last week at Fine Fare Supermarket on Third Avenue in Long Branch, and a local resident purchased the ticket for just $10.

They won the one-million scratch off prize Nov. 3. “It’s surreal,” said the winner, who was not identified by the NJ state Lottery. “I must’ve looked at the card 20 times. I really tried to hide my reaction.”

Additionally, someone who purchased a lottery ticket in Perth Amboy last week won $500,000.

They won that in the newly released Winter Ice $10 game.

That winning ticket was sold at EZ Pick, 279 Smith Street in Perth Amboy.
