A $1 million Powerball ticket was sold at the Dawsonville Kroger next by the North Georgia Premium Outlets

A Powerball ticket sold at the Kroger at 378 Marketplace Parkway in Dawsonville, Georgia, matched all five white balls in Monday's drawing for a $1 million prize, WSB-TV reported. The winning numbers were 18, 26, 49, 50, and 54. The ticket missed only the Powerball, 1. Figures are as of October 27, 2026.
The store sits next to North Georgia Premium Outlets, the open-air outlet center on GA 400 that draws shoppers from across metro Atlanta and nearby states. The center has about 140 name-brand outlet stores and is roughly 40 minutes north of Atlanta.
A second Georgia player, from Lawrenceville, won $50,000 on a ticket bought online that matched four white balls and the Powerball, WSB-TV reported. The other $1 million ticket from Monday was sold in Florida. No one matched all six numbers, so Wednesday's jackpot is an estimated $716 million, $307.2 million in cash.
