So, we didn't win the Mega Millions or the Powerball last weekend, and it's probably because we didn't play those numbers from inside our fortune cookies. Someone studied this, and figured out just how lucky those little numbers actually are. Better than Quick Picks!
With no winner Saturday night, the Powerball jackpot has rolled over again and they're estimating it will be around $310 million for tonight's drawing. Are the odds of winning better in Texas? See why that may be true, especially with the smaller cash prizes.
Now is the time to pool the money at the office if you're going for the huge Powerball jackpot tonight. It's a quarter of a billion dollars, which might mean you don't have to go into debt buying chocolate and jewelry for Valentine's Day.
With a Mega Millions jackpot so huge, you might have hoped that 15 winners would share that insane amount of money, but it turns out one winner gets $540 million after Friday's drawing. And the winning ticket didn't come from Texas.
But here's why that's a good thing.
Last week's record setting $1.5 BILLION Powerball Jackpot produced 3 grand prize winners in California, Tennessee, and Florida. Even though nobody matched all six numbers in Texas, several millionaires were produced in the Lone Star State.
I know YOU are the one who will win the Powerball this Wednesday. But just in case it's me, I thought I'd jot down some of the things I might buy with my winnings. See if you relate.
The winning numbers in Saturday night’s Powerball drawing were 22-32-37-44-50 with Powerball 34, according to the Powerball lottery’s website.
Saturday night’s jackpot amount was the fourth largest in the game’s history, but no one matched all of the numbers. There was no winner. So…how high will the jackpot climb now?
Anytime the Powerball jackpot starts to swell, the lines grow longer to buy tickets and the pot of cash grows even bigger. So expect that $185 million jackpot to continue to move today as the day goes on.
Feeling lucky? Today is a good day to pool your money at the office and buy lots of tickets. The drawing is tonight, November 14th. Oh, think of the iPads and flat screen TVs you could put under
