STOCKBRIDGE, Ga. — If you live or stopped in Henry County to purchase a lottery ticket, you might want to check your numbers.

Not only did the ticket match most of those numbers, it also had a 2x Powerplay. That doubled the normal prize amount of $50,000 to $100,000.

Which lucky store sold the ticket? Georgia Lottery says someone bought it at the Conyers Food Mart off Old Conyers Road in Stockbridge.

No one matched all the numbers for the Powerball jackpot, which now moves to $400 million for Saturday’s drawing.
