When Mega Millions Goes To $2/TicketReply
What terms should I Google to find this information? I don't see any tweets from MUSL about a Mega Millions price increase (do they even have a Twitter feed?), don't see any articles about a Mega Millions price increase and can't find any industry buzz other than online forums posts by lottery players. Mega Millions has seen an increase in sales from the folks who left Powerball after the price increase. If they, too, increase the price of their ticket, they'll lose those players and, probab

CNN producer tells what it's like to win lottery twiceReply
For me, I have a small budget for Powerball Mega Millions only. I have been playing Mega Millions since the last big Jackpot for Powerball.

$200M Powerball lottery jackpot won by N.Y. Costco workersReply
Absolutely, yes, it would be life changing if I won Mega Millions with my own individual ticket. But the problem is, it is extremely difficult to win Mega Millions or Powerball.

Plus we spend the money we win on the small prizes on more tickets. We will end up with around 750 tickets. It is easier to win
