Are you playing Mega Millions with the $5.00 per play?
I work at a store that sells lottery tickets, and I can honestly say that less than 10 people have purchased Mega Millions tickets from me since the price of Mega Millions tickets increased to $5 in April.

Mega Millions and Powerball Race
The Mega Millions jackpot increased by the minimum $10 million to $140 million. It is estimated the current jackpot is under funded from sales by about $0.3 million. This will be the last minimum $10 million jackpot increase. Going forward, the jackpot will be fully funded by sales. Nonetheless, there is no possibility for the Mega Millions jackpot to catch up to the Powerball jackpot. The Powerball jackpot is clearly winning this race.

Mega Millions Drawing Increase
I do not see anything sketchy at all with the exact ten million increase after each draw. Especially after the increase to $5 a ticket. Nope it is not suspicious in the least, it is all on the up and up.

The Mega Millions jackpot is $60 million. It is estimated the current jackpot is under funded from sales by about $30.5 million. It appears the only way for the Mega Millions jackpot to surpass the Powerball jackpot is for the Powerball jackpot to be won. The Powerball jackpot is $174 million.

Mega Millions and Powerball Race
The Mega Millions jackpot is now $326 million. That was a good increase of $24 million - the biggest jackpot increase since the $5 ticket price was introduced. The difference between the Mega Millions jackpot and the Powerball jackpot increased by $8 million. Maybe the game will prove to be a success after all.

Are you playing Mega Millions with the $5.00 per play?
We went back and looked at both Powerball Mega Millions during the period of when they both had starting jackpots of $20 Million and $2.00 per Line.
In addition, we correctly scaled the time frames by which each performs their draws on a weekly interval.
Below is Powerball's $20M / $2.00 run and we can see it breaks the Billion Dollar Barrier on average in its 13 th week of draws.
Below is Mega Millions' previous $20M / $2.00 run and we can see it breaks the Billion Do

The Powerball jackpot is $166 million and continues to be more than twice as large as the Mega Millions jackpot.
The Powerball jackpot is clearly continuing to win the race.

Mega Millions and Powerball Race
This is a statistic I do not normally track so it is hard to say if it is a record but it certainly appears to be. Since July 9, 2025 (over 6 months ago), either Powerball or Mega Millions had a jackpot of at least $217 million.
The Powerball jackpot was $217 million on July 9 and it rose to $1.79 billion and was won. Then Mega millions took over with a jackpot of $358 million and it rose to $983 million. Then Powerball took over with a jackpot of $516 million and it rose to $1.8 billion an
