A Cash 5 winning ticket was sold in Monmouth County, New Jersey

How often do you walk into a Wawa in Jersey, and as you grab a shorti and a bag of chips, you look over the lottery machine and think about buying a ticket?

For me, it’s almost every time I go into a Wawa.

One of my favorite impulse buys is playing the lottery, whether it’s scratch cards, Cash 5 a Mega Millions or Powerball, I love the thrill of potentially winning big.

Obviously the chances of winning are incredibly slim, if not non-existent, but that doesn’t mean you can’t win.

A woman who went to Wawa for a quick snack stopped and ended up leaving the store a millionaire just because she stopped and got a lottery ticket.

Jersey seems to be a pretty lucky place when it comes to playing the lottery. If you remember, last year someone won a billion dollar jackpot at a Shoprite in Neptune.
