Mega Millions ticket sold in NC wins $1 million prize

February 1, 2020 Posted by NC Lottery at 1:14 PM

Friday’s Mega Millions drawing produced a $1 million prize for someone who bought a ticket at a convenience store in Jacksonville in Onslow County.

The lucky winner bought the ticket at Dempsey’s Kwik Mart on Catherine Lake Road in Jacksonville. The $2 ticket matched the numbers on the five white balls, 28-31-33-57-62, beating odds of 1 in 12.6 million.

Mega Millions players whose ticket came from the store should check their tickets. The lucky winner has 180 days from the drawing to claim the prize.

No one matched the numbers on all five white balls and the yellow Mega Ball to win the jackpot in the drawing. The Tuesday jackpot climbs to $168 million as an annuity prize or $118.8 million cash.

Nice!!! But a shame they didn't buy a $3.00 "Megaplier"...That extra dollar would have got them 2 MILLION !!! UNREAL how many players in NC don't know the difference...

No guarantee that by spending an extra dollar would have given them the winning numbers assuming that it was a quick pick

Fantastic. Hope they all check their tickets, in that area.

For one more dollar they could have been 2 million dollars richer using the Megaplier. Congratulations!!!

Congratulations to you and I hope lucks comes my way one day

Why not spend the extra $1 for the Megaplier and a chance to double your money or more? It’s a biweekly draw. I just don’t get it?

Lucky million dollar win!

Don't know if this is where I ask a question or not.I have the Lottery Mobile App. on my phone to scan to see if I have a winner and scan for points.Don't use it to buy games.Why do I have to keep logging in to the App. I was able to use the App before without always having to log back in.Is there an App I can use and not have to keep logging back in?????

Sorry to hear that you're frustrated with the new app, John. As a part of our new system, we implemented enhanced security features to the app. This includes automatically logging you out if you are inactive for a number of minutes. We apologize for the inconvenience.
