$250K Scratch-Off Lottery Winner Buys Ticket at South Jersey Wawa

New Jersey lottery players have been keeping their eyes on the $250,000 Crossword scratch-off game, because six tickets for the game, which launched in August, were worth the top prize value of $250,000.

That's a mighty sweet price for a $10 scratch-off ticket.

On Sunday, the New Jersey Lottery announced that the fourth $250,000 top prize ticket had been sold at a Wawa in South Jersey.

As nice as the prize is for the winner from the Sewell Wawa, a North Jersey lottery player had an even bigger payday with a scratch-off ticket to bring in the New Year, according to the New Jersey Lottery.

A lottery player in North Jersey rang in the new year by winning $1.7 million playing a $5 scratch-off game.

The New Jersey Lottery announced that a Hudson County lottery player won the top prize in its Win for Life! scratch-off game on Jan. 1.

The winner opted for a lump-sum cash payment of $1,769,80, instead of $10,000 a month for 25 years ($3 million), according to the lottery.

The winning ticket was sold at 502 Grocery and Deli on Ocean Avenue in Jersey City.
