$40,000 PowerBall® PowerPlay® Valentine's Day Win
$10,000 PowerBall® Ticket Claimed

Someone's valentine is going to be very happy today! Last night's PowerBall® drawing resulted in a $40,000 PowerBall® PowerPlay® ticket sold in Rhode Island.

The winning ticket matched four numbers and the PowerBall® number, for a standard payout of $10,000. However, the winner added the Power Play® feature for an extra dollar which increased the prize to $40,000. The prize has yet to be claimed.

ABC Gas, 1036 Reservoir Avenue, Cranston sold the winning ticket.

Additionally, the $10,000 PowerBall® ticket from the February 9 drawing has been claimed by a group of 19 employees at the Jeweler Shipping Association in Cranston.  One of the winners is heading to Florida next week and will use his share for spending money.

Cumberland Farms, 921 Cranston St., Cranston sold this winning PowerBall® ticket.

Saturday's estimated PowerBall® jackpot is at $60 million.
