Powerball Jackpot Climbs as Yonkers Store Becomes 'Lucky Spot' After Selling Three $1 Million Tickets

Why does this matter? The Powerball's increasing jackpot offers a significant potential payout, while the Yonkers store's success highlights the unpredictable nature of lottery wins and the excitement they generate.

The Powerball lottery continues to be a major draw, with jackpots reaching substantial amounts. The recent drawing on Wednesday, October 22, 2025, saw no grand prize winner, pushing the jackpot even higher.

In an unusual turn of events, a gas station convenience store named V&C Taneja in Yonkers, NY, sold three $1 million Powerball tickets for the same drawing. This has led to a surge in customers visiting the store, eager to test their luck at what they now consider a 'lucky spot.' Lottery officials have acknowledged the rarity of such an event.

The winning numbers for the Wednesday night drawing were 18, 37, 52, 54, 60, and the Powerball was 12. While no one hit the jackpot, a ticket in Delaware matched five numbers, also winning $1 million. The Double Play numbers for the same date were 23, 37, 43, 60, 64, and the Powerball was 5.

This event underscores the long odds of winning the Powerball, but also the tangible excitement and community engagement that lottery wins can create. It serves as a reminder of both the potential for life-changing wealth and the importance of responsible gambling.

The winning numbers were 18, 37, 52, 54, 60, and the Powerball was 12.

A single Powerball ticket costs $2. Additional options like Power Play and Double Play are available for an extra $1 each.

Drawings are held every Monday, Wednesday, and Saturday at approximately 10:59 p.m. ET.
