$6.5M lottery jackpot tops huge week of wins across New Jersey

TRENTON, N.J. — A surge of lottery wins swept across New Jersey last week, with multiple players cashing in prizes ranging from $10,000 to several million dollars — including one massive jackpot hit.

The biggest prize came from a Pick-6 ticket worth $6.5 million, topping a list of 17 winners recorded between Monday, March 23 and Sunday, March 29.

Another standout win came from a Mega Millions ticket sold in Monroe, which delivered a $3 million prize.

Several other players also walked away with six-figure payouts.

A $500,000 scratch-off prize was sold in Ewing, while a $200,000 winning ticket was purchased in Red Bank. In West New York, a Wild Card Poker ticket brought in $150,000.

Across the state, mid-range prizes continued to pile up.

Winning tickets worth $75,000 were sold in Bellmawr and Bloomfield, while multiple $50,000 prizes were claimed in towns including Plainfield, Guttenberg, Nutley and Stirling.

Even more players scored smaller — but still significant — wins, with several $25,000 and $10,000 tickets sold in places like Ridgefield Park, Trenton, Newark and Wanaque.

In Clifton, a Jersey Cash 5 ticket added to the excitement with a $621,931 payout.

The string of wins highlights just how widespread lottery luck was across the Garden State in a single week — with prizes hitting nearly every corner of New Jersey.
