Tickets from 2 Miami-Dade Publix stores and a Sedano's shared a lottery jackpot
On a day of Mega Millions, Cash4Life, Jackpot Triple Play and Fantasy 5 drawings, all the South Florida luck was packed into one drawing and into Miami-Dade supermarkets. That drawing wasn't the Mega Millions, which will have a $198 million jackpot for Friday's drawing. Monday's first drawing, the Fantasy 5 midday draw, came up 2, 3, 18, 21 and 33. That matched a Quick Pick ticket bought at a West Miami-Dade Sedano's, 12175 SW 26th St., and tickets bought at Publix stores on Southwest 152nd Street — Country Walk at 13735 SW 152nd St., and Corsica Square, 15771 SW 152nd St. The three-way split made each ticket worth $17,141. These tickets have to be cashed at a Florida Lottery main office or a district office, which are open 8:30 a.m. to 4 p.m. Monday through Friday. The Miami district office is at 14621 Oak Ln. in Miami Lakes and can be reached at MIARC@ or 305-364-3080. Appointments can be made, but aren't necessary.

Publix in Florida sold winning billion-dollar Powerball, Mega Millions tickets: A look back
"Publix, where shopping is a pleasure." The iconic catchphrase for the Florida-based grocery chain rang true for not one, but two record-winning lottery winners here. On Jan. 13, 2016, #MelbourneBeach was trending on social media, and on Aug. 8, 2023, so was #NeptuneBeach, both thanks to a local @Publix. In 2016, David Kaltschmidt and Maureen Smith of Melbourne Beach claimed their share of what was then the largest Powerball jackpot in the history of the game, $1.586 billion. Then, in 2023, a winner from Neptune Beach matched all five numbers plus the Mega Ball to win the biggest jackpot in the history of Mega Millions, $1.58 billion. Is it a little crazy ... or interestingly coincidental ... to think that of the 12 times a lottery jackpot has hit $1 billion or more that two of the winning tickets were purchased at a beachtown Publix in Florida and the prize was at least $1.58 billion? What are the odds? Florida Lottery game drawing has consecutive numbers: 5, 6, 7, 8 and 9 Read on to find out more similarities and differences of this strange yet fascinating lottery coincidence. When was the first time a lottery jackpot hit $1 billion? Who won $1.586 billion Powerball on Jan. 13, 2016? Powerball made history Jan. 11, 2016, the first time a lottery jackpot hit $1 billion. After no one matched all five numbers plus the Powerball in the (Saturday) Jan. 9, 2016, drawing for $949 million, the Monday jackpot soared to $1.4 billion. (No one won that drawing either.) Powerball made history again when three tickets matched all six numbers to win $1.586 billion in the (Wednesday) Jan. 13, 2016, drawing. The jackpot started Nov. 4, 2015, at $40 million. It had rolled over almost 30 times from Nov. 4, 2015, to Jan. 13, 2016, before three tickets from California, Tennessee and Melbourne Beach, Florida, claimed the $1.586 billion grand prize. In 2016, FLORIDA TODAY reported Maureen Smith and David Kaltschmidt bought their winning Powerball ticket at a Publix in Melbourne Beach. The store received a $100,000 commission from the Florida Lottery for selling one of the billion-dollar tickets. As of Aug. 8, 2025, the$1.586 billion Powerball prize is still in the Top 10 largest lottery jackpots of all-time. Melbourne Beach Publix is the only grocery store in that town Sandwiched between Indialantic and Sebastian, Melbourne Beach is a small town that's part of Florida's Space Coast. Publix, 3830 S. SR A1A, Melbourne Beach, is in the Driftwood Plaza. Who won $1.58 billion Mega Millions on Aug. 8, 2023? A Florida Publix sold winning ticket After months of rollovers, on Aug. 8, 2023, someone was lucky enough to buy a $2 Mega Millions ticket worth $1.58 billion from a Publix in Neptune Beach, Florida. On Sept. 25, the winner — Saltines Holdings LLC of Miami, Florida — claimed the prize, but it was not known whether it was a one-time lump sum or annual payments. The winner has a limited time to claim prizes this large in person at Florida Lottery headquarters and to remain anonymous as it is public record to know the identities of lottery winners in Florida. Lottery lawyers and experts, however, say there are ways to remain anonymous. Like its sister store in Melbourne Beach, the Neptune Beach Publix also received a $100,000 bonus commission. As of Aug. 8, 2025, two years since the 'Neptune Beach Publix win,' the$1.586 billion Powerball prize remains on the list of Top 10 largest lottery jackpots of all-time and the biggest Mega Millions lottery jackpot in the history of the game. Neptune Beach's Publix where the winning Mega Millions ticket was bought is next door to another Publix The billion-dollar Mega Millions winner is truly lucky. If the person had bought their ticket just about 250 feet away at the new Publix next door, the day after the lottery drawing would've been $1.58 billion less exciting. The newer Publix next door was most recently a Lucky's Market. After closing its doors in 2020 and sitting empty until 2023, it was surprisingly turned into a Publix store – only about 250 feet away from Neptune Beach's original Publix store. For those who live in the Jacksonville Beach area near both stores – where shopping is a pleasure – there was likely a source of hometown pride and, possibly, hometown ridicule.
