Well, at least we still have our dreams of winning Mega Millions.

Powerball’s jackpot is back to only $20 million after one lucky person in California won the $1.08 billion Powerball jackpot, securing the third-largest Powerball jackpot in history. The cash value is $558 million.

While nobody in New Jersey brought home the big prize, two matched the five white balls which gives you a cool $1 million.

Those tickets were sold in Metro Liquor in Elmwood Park and Galaxy Liquors in Orange.

Another 12 tickets in New Jersey matched four of the five white balls and the Power Ball, winning $50,000. One of those tickets was purchased with Power Play, multiplying the prize to $100,000.

More: These jackpot prizes won't fit on the New Jersey Turnpike. NJ Lottery did the math.
