The couple, who has two children and a third on the way, purchased the $3 million scratch-off at the Fischer Bay Exxon, located at 826 Fischer Boulevard in Toms River, Ocean County.
And just back in April, the same couple won the $1 million prize in the "$1,000,000 Ultimate Spectacular."
According to officials with the New Jersey Lottery, the combined odds of winning both prizes are roughly 1 in two trillion. For comparison's sake, a player would be 1.2 million times more likely to be hit by a meteorite.
The couple has a 5-year-old and an 11-month-old and said playing lottery scratch-off tickets is their way to enjoy downtime.
"With our kids, we can't really get out of the house," the husband said. "So at the beginning of the month, we get some (Scratch-Off) tickets. When the kids go to bed, we scratch a few off. We like to make it a bit of a competition--who can win the most. It seems we at least always break even."
The couple celebrated after their first big win in April.
"Maybe we celebrated a bit too much," the wife said, patting her belly.
She's currently five-months pregnant.
"I've always said that you only need one ticket to win big," New Jersey Lottery Director James Carey said. "But I guess, in this case two tickets certainly didn't hurt! This is just pure blind luck."
