it should be if it isn't. these two unlikely partners branched off a costco pool of 23 workers. 21 gave up after the big jackpot got taken down. they had better leave that cold floor big lots cheesey store or they will have dagger eyes staring at them while they continue working taking a job from someone else who needs it. absolutey ludicrous that they would continue working on all counts or reasons. of course the other co-workers (although they will say we are happy for you really are insanely...

Congratulations Powerball, 50%/50% shared, jackpot winners!!! Happy stories from each winner!

Actually, w/$9.9M net each [after further Federal Income Taxes or donations gets taken away next year], it is best for each of you to quit your job at Costco.

Here's the lucky co-workers:

I wonder if they had a system or if it was a quick pick? Does anyone know?

I just read on another website called the Arlington Patch that they played a self pick and a quick pick and the number that won was a quick pick.

You see boys, it's all luck

The two co-workers had a ritual for the past 10 months. She would buy two Powerball tickets, write their names on the back, and then give him a copy.

It may have seemed a modest indulgence. The longest of long shots.

But on Wednesday night, it paid off big-time with more than $11 million for each of them.

Rosa DeLeon, 52, of Arlington and Reginald LeBlanc, 54, of Lexington, who work at the Costco in Waltham, bought a $50 million Powerball ticket at a gas station in Lexington.
