Jackpot made it that high after four straight days without a winner
A store along the Shore sold a jackpot-winning ticket worth $650,700 for Thursday night's Jersey Cash 5 jackpot.
The lucky ticket was purchased at Hometown Food Market on the 100 block of West Sylvania Avenue in Neptune City, state lottery official said Friday.
The winning numbers were: 1, 18, 19, 28 and 42.
The jackpot climbed to that level after four straight daily drawings without anyone hitting the jackpot.
The odds of a ticket matching five numbers are 962,598 to 1.
The jackpot for this evening's drawing resets to $75,000.
