NORFOLK, Va. – Although no one won the big jackpot, four lucky people who purchased tickets in Virginia won $50,000!
A total of 119,251 winning tickets were sold in Virginia.
The four tickets each matched four of the first five numbers, plus the Powerball number. Those tickets were purchased at:
- Quick Serve, 5714 Sellger Drive, Norfolk
- Glory Mart, 11247 Air Park Road, Ashland
- 7-Eleven, 5122 Wilson Blvd., Arlington
- 7-Eleven, 4051 Cox Road, Glen Allen
If one ticket matches all six numbers in Wednesday’s drawing, the winner will have a choice–take the full $650 million jackpot in 30 annual payments or choose a one-time cash option of approximately $411.7 million before taxes.
The profit from every Powerball ticket bought in Virginia goes to K-12 public education in the state.
