EPHRATA (AP) — After a nationwide frenzy for a life-changing chance to win a $380 million Mega Millions jackpot, the two winning tickets were sold in small Pacific Northwest towns just 125 miles apart.
Shoppers at a Safeway supermarket in Ephrata spent Wednesday wondering who bought one of the winners at the store 130 miles east of Seattle, in the middle of Washington’s potato country. A stream of people were checking their tickets at the video department where lottery tickets are sold, then turning away disappointed.
Idaho officials said someone bought the other winning ticket in the town of Post Falls, across the state line from Spokane.
The winners have not yet stepped forward, and officials declined to identify the store where Idaho’s winning ticket was sold, citing that state’s security procedures.
