The lucky winner made the purchase at The Corner Store II, News N Things on the 100 block of Kennedy Boulevard in Bayonne, New Jersey Lottery officials said SaturdayFriday’s winning numbers were: 8, 33, 39, 54 and 58. The Mega Ball drawn was 17 with a Megaplier of 3X.
If the winner chose the cash option, the prize is $100.8 million before state and federal taxes are deducted.
There were also two second-prize, $1 million tickets sold — one each in Illinois and Texas. Both matched five numbers but not the Mega Ball.

Lottery officials will hold a press conference Monday at the store to present the retailer with a $30,000 bonus check for selling the winning ticket.
The jackpot for Tuesday’s drawing resets to an estimated $20 million with a cash option of $16.2 million.
