The eight family members will claim their share of last weekend's $429.6 million Powerball jackpot, which was won with a $6 investment. The trip to claiming the jackpot began last week at a 7-Eleven in Trenton when someone bought two $2 tickets, one each for drawings held last Wednesday and Saturday, and spent an extra $1 on each ticket to get the "Power Play" option that multiplies the winnings.
