Valley Triple Twist lottery player wins $1.47M jackpot, 2 other players win big in Powerball

PHOENIX — The holiday weekend brought plenty of luck to the West Valley, thanks to big Arizona Lottery wins.

Three metro Phoenix residents scored prizes, but the biggest went to a shopper at a Safeway in Surprise, who hit the $1.47 million Triple Twist jackpot in Sunday’s drawing.

The winning numbers were 12, 17, 18, 19, 41, and 42. With the Triple Twist jackpot claimed, it resets to $200,000 for Monday night’s drawing.

Triple Twist is a daily game offered by Arizona Lottery, where players select six numbers between 1 and 42 after purchasing a ticket for $2. Each jackpot starts at $200,000, and the odds of selecting a winning ticket are roughly 1 in 5.2 million.

Aside from the Triple Twist jackpot winner, who else became richer?

Santa Claus must have blessed that Safeway near Peoria Avenue and Cotton Lane, because another winning ticket was sold there, too.

One shopper picked up a Powerball ticket worth $50,000 — and with the addition of the 3X Power Play, their total winnings jumped to $150,000.

Yet another West Valley shopper struck it big in the holiday weekend drawings.

A Safeway customer in Wickenburg bought a winning Powerball ticket worth $50,000. Just like the Surprise shopper, their total winnings climbed to $150,000 thanks to the Power Play.

The winning Powerball numbers in Wednesday’s drawing were 7, 8, 15, 19 and 28, with a Powerball of 3.

Powerball drawings are held Mondays, Wednesdays and Saturdays, with entries running $2 a pop.

The winner of each Arizona Lottery game has 180 days from the drawing to claim their prize.
