Looks like Montgomery County may be experiencing a Lottery winning streak after a second million-dollar winning ticket was sold there.

Unlike the earlier ticket, which had a single winner, the winner of the Oct. 4 Cash 5 with Quick Cash drawing will split the $1.08 million jackpot.

Both winning tickets matched all five balls drawn — 4-12-19-33-41 — and each will receive $541,349 less withholding, according to a press release.

The winning tickets were sold at the Hatfield Market, 304 Union St., Hatfield and ACME Markets, 8200 Roosevelt Blvd., Philadelphia. Each retailer will receive a $5,000 bonus.

In August, the Souderton Food Market sold a record-setting $3.07 million winning lottery ticket, the largest ever for a Cash 5 with Quick Cash game.

A lottery spokeswoman confirmed the record breaking winning ticket has been claimed, unlike another 2021 six-figure winning ticket sold in Montgomery County.

The Powerball with Power Play ticket worth $100,000 before taxes expired on Sept. 20, which was the one year anniversary of the drawing. The ticket was sold at a Wawa in the 1000 block of DeKalb Pike in Whitpain Township.

In Pennsylvania, lottery winners have until the close of business up to one year from the drawing date to claim prizes. Unclaimed, expired prizes remain in the Lottery Fund, which is used to support programs benefiting older Pennsylvanians.
