The Bonita Springs Publix Sold a $42,000 Winning Florida Lottery Ticket Over The Weekend
If you bought a Florida Lottery Fantasy 5 ticket at the Bonita Springs Publix last weekend, check your tickets, because someone scored a jackpot. And I bought the wrong game.
I had a feeling last night that there would be winning ticket sold in Southwest Florida over the weekend. So on Saturday I went to the Publix Estero and got popcorn chicken with buffalo sauce, a container of coleslaw, and a $30 300x The Cash ticket. My birthday dinner and a shot at more. But I did two things wrong. Wrong Publix, wrong game.
Bonita Springs Publix
The winning Fantasy 5 ticket was sold at the Bonita Springs Publix at 12900 Trade Way Four. That’s the store at the corner of Bonita Grande Way and Bonita Beach Road. The winner chose the Saturday night, October 19th evening draw which came up with the numbers 11-15-16-17-33. And yes, they chose the Quick Pick. What capped the jackpot at $42,056.77 was that there were two other winners last night. One in Largo, one in Brandon.
So if you bought a Florida Lottery Fantasy 5 ticket from the Bonita Springs Publix on Saturday, double check that ticket to see if you won. Also, good to see someone in Brandon, Florida getting a win. Milton caused a lot of flooding and they were without power there for quite a while. A good boost for someone that’s likely been suffering.
Let Me Explain That Meal Choice
Yes, I have the people at the deli add buffalo sauce to hot & spicy fried popcorn chicken. It gives it a pretty good kick. That’s why I pair it with coleslaw, which calms that spicy when you need it. You end up with a pretty amazing meal that serves two for around $10. A savings that I completely threw out the window by buying a $30 lottery ticket. But I got paid on Friday. Gotta live a little, right?
