Original report: If you have a few dollars and dreams of riches untold, the coming week could be a game-changer for you.
Two national lottery games – Mega Millions and Powerball – are sporting huge jackpots this week, now topping a billion in total combined winnings.
The Mega Millions drawing set for Tuesday has the second largest jackpot in the game's history, worth $667 million (or $372 million with the cash option). That breaks the game's previous record jackpot of $656 million.
Add to that a hefty $345 million Powerball jackpot, and you're looking at nearly a billion dollars in lottery money being up for grabs this week.
The Powerball jackpot is the 17th largest in the game's history. The cash payout on the $345 million would be $199 million.
How did we get the chance to play for such jackpots? You can thank all those who played and didn't hit the jackpot. The Mega Millions jackpot has been building since July 24, the last time the grand prize jackpot was won.
The Powerball game has not seen a grand prize winner since Aug. 11.
The Mega Millions numbers drawn Friday were 04-24-46-61-70. The Megaball was 07. The Megaplier was 3.
One ticket sold in Arkansas matched all five numbers, but did not match the Megaball number. That winning ticket is worth $3 million because the person who purchased the ticket purchased the "Multiplier" option which tripled the $1 million prize.
