I've been using winners to buy for the last several draws. I had 3 whites + mega, and have been playing on that (less a gas fillup each for my college kids, dinner at Ya Ya's, trip to the book store...lol). I hit the mega ball this time for $2, so I'll have to cash my scratcher. I usually only buy 5 tickets, but I'll go with more this time. Between the $2 and the mega ball win, I've got $22 for the $220m. Hmmm. We'll see.

I bought 4 tickets, matched 1 number and it was not the mega ball.
Next time I am getting only 1 ticket.   I rarely buy more then two my self ... but then it has to be @ least 100million

I agree with you bro. All you need is a dollar and some luck. Some people including myself be stupid and be stupid and spending like $50 dollars and more.

I bought my ticket. Since the last couple of draws, I haven't had much luck, but maybe that will change this drawing.

 At least I got 2 bucks for getting the megaball right.

once it crossed the 100 million mark i have been buying a 10 drawing 1 dollar quick pick. i have not checked any of my tickets to see if they are a winner yet. i hope it goes over 300 million. it would be nice. it does make the news anymore until it hits 250 million.

Good luck to those playing.
Living in southwest florida, it would take a good 8 hours of driving, something I'd only do if winning was a guarantee :P
Powerball's creeping back up though!

Last time I was in Bracey, VA, I bought 10 weeks of Megaball tickets because it was over 100 million then and who knew how long it would go on for? Well, now it's up again, this time to $220 million...and I have one ticket left and it's for Friday night. So if no one wins, then it's road trip to Bracey on Monday!! Think I'll buy another 10 weeks worth of tickets.....
OH - and I finally got the Megaball on Tuesday. I never, ever get the Powerball or Megaball. So hopefully that's a good sign...
Kidzmom - maybe I'll see you in line??

Seems like there are two winners already. One from CA. I am not sure about the other state.

Three actually, one in California, one in Ohio (no surprise there) and one in Virginia. With odds like 1 in 175,711,536 how can I lose?!
You can't predict random.
