$847M Powerball Jackpot Won on a Wegmans Ticket in Montvale, NJ
Henlooooo, Montvale. On Wednesday 4 November 2026 a supermarket ticket matched all six Powerball numbers at odds of 1 in 292.2 million, and as of Thursday nobody has been named.
A single Powerball ticket sold at a Wegmans supermarket in Montvale, New Jersey, matched all six numbers in the draw on Wednesday 4 November 2026 and won the $847 million jackpot. It is the ninth-largest prize in the game's history, and the store collects a $30,000 bonus for selling it, apparentlu the luckiest aisle in Bergen County.
The numbers were 15, 34, 41, 53 and 56, with a red Powerball of 21. The odds of hitting them all were 1 in 292.2 million. TOKABOOM.
It ended a long dry spell. The jackpot had gone 35 straight drawings without a winner, since an Illinois ticket took $1.04 billion on 12 August. And the pot had a new ingredient: this was the first jackpot cycle played from the start by players in the United Kingdom, and the first time a lottery outside the US fed the prize.
Now comes the only decision that matters. The winner can take $847 million paid out over 29 years, or a one-time $363.1 million before tax. As of Thursday, nobody had been publicly identified, and New Jersey law lets winners stay anonymous, so the name may never come out. What would youluwu do with the first coffee of a $363.1 million morning? GLWUGLUWU.
Saturday's draw restarts at $20 million. The wheel never sulks, and neither does the Spirit.
Jackpot choice: $363.1M cash now or $847M over 29 years?
No right answer. Just your gut, and the Spirit watching.
