Nobody in Florida won Powerball, Cash4Life or Florida Lotto draws Saturday night, but two Fantasy 5 winners split the jackpot and one of them bought their ticket at a Miami Gardens Publix.

One of the tickets worth $66,935 was a Quick Pick from the Publix at 19955 NW Second Ave.

The other $66,935 ticket is held by someone who got a Quick Pick ticket at Rainbow City Food Store, 1919 N. Seacrest Blvd., in Boynton Beach.
