5 Florida Lottery jackpot winners, 3 sold at Publix stores. One was in Miami-Dade
Sunday was a happy day for five Florida Lottery players, three of whom bought their tickets at Publix stores in the Miami, Orlando and Tampa metropolitan areas.
Nobody hit the Cash 4 Life jackpot Sunday, but the Fantasy 5 evening draw — 13-15-17-27-34 — was matched by a Quick Pick ticket sold at the Surfside Publix, 9400 Harding Ave.; a Quick Pick at a Clearwater Publix, 1921 N. Belcher Rd., a Quick Pick at an Orlando 7-Eleven, 846 S. Kirkman Rd.; and a Melbourne Beach Exxon, 904 Oak St. Each ticket was worth $24,788.
With that jackpot being split four ways, Sunday was the rare day that the Fantasy 5 midday draw jackpot winner won over twice as much as the evening draw winners. A Publix shopper at 10601 U.S. Hwy. 441 in Leesburg chose 3, 4, 7, 11, and 16, lucky choices worth $53,487.
