Imagine walking into your local Wawa for a cup of coffee or a hoagie and leaving with an extra $50,000.

For one person in South Jersey, that's exactly what happened last week.

And we did the math — with $50,000, you could buy about 12,000 cups of coffee or about 3,500 hoagies... after taxes, of course.

According to officials with the New Jersey Lottery, 14 people hit jackpots of at least $10,000 last week with one person scoring $1.7 million.

As for that winning Wawa location, someone playing Powerball at the store on Route 45 in Pilesgrove, Salem County, on February 1st, walked away with 50 big ones.
