She was shocked and excited to discover late September 2018 that for the first time, those numbers had won her $128,946, splitting the $257,892 with one other player.

Bialek -- who purchased the ticket from Metro Wine & Liquors in East Rutherford -- immediately told her kids the great news. She plans on putting her winnings toward home repairs and possibly a cruise with her son.
