Madison, Wis. -- The weather isn't the only thing heating up this month. A winning $50,000 Powerball ticket was sold at Meijer Gas Station on 7735 Green Bay Rd. in Kenosha for the Wednesday, April 10, 2024, drawing. It is the seventh time since April 1, that a winning Powerball ticket of $50,000 or more was sold at a Wisconsin retailer. The winning ticket matched four of five numbers (6-7-12-24-36) and the Powerball (15).
"It's great for the store to sell another big winner," said Christina Wilks, lead employee at Meijer Gas Station. "We sold a Badger 5 jackpot a few months ago, so I think we're a pretty lucky store."
