We are all hard working adults yes, but not all females. I'm the group's one male. It started with me and the lady who at the time, sat in the desk next to mine. We used to talk about how cool it would be win then I came up with the idea if we pooled our money, we could play every drawing. Then some others got into the act, so now we have a total of 6 people who put up $4 every payday, which I use to buy 3 Powerball and 3 Lotto multidraw tickets with some sets of numbers we play every time a...

Instead driving out of state to buy PowerBall tickets, I'm staying home and doubling up on my MegaMillions tickets because the cash values of both are about the same.

consistancy that is one the main keys!! And that is what we do ... in our pool their are 5 of us as well!! All females and hard working mom's that have BIG DREAMS ( I am sure just like ur group!) that is what i LOVE TO SEE ... HARD working adults winning! I wonder sometimes if we will ever get to live those dreams but as you said you gotta keep on playing to win

What you do is similar to what we do in our lottery pool at work. We each put up $4 on payday and buy both Powerball and Lotto multidraw tickets that cover all drawings until the next payday. No matter what the jackpot is, we play and keep hoping we'll win. With 6 of us in the pool, that's 3 Powerball and 3 Lotto tickets.

I always play Lotto for myself as well, but I only buy Poweball for myself if the jackpot gets above $100 million. When the jackpot gets high at my work, someone always... [ More ]

Both Powerball and Mega Millions look ripe for the picking! I just bought a house and a win on either (or perhaps both?) would do very nicely

Even though PowerBall jackpot is $152M (cash $72M), the MegaMillions jackpot of $117M (cash $68M) will probably halt players from MM states traveling out of state to buy PB tickets.

I usually do not play the Powerball I am more in tune of playing mega million but being that it has grown to 152 million dollars who wouldn't take a chance.

Good luck

I think after dinner tonight I will head down to the Corner Store and pick up the winning ticket for saturday's jackpot. I do not want this jackpot to burden the rest of the Powerball Players. I think they can settle for a $15 million prize.-weshar75

Powerball lottery jackpot climbs to $152 million

The Powerball lottery jackpot continues to grow and grow.

Even though the grand prize was not hit Wednesday evening, 740,025 players across the nation won a total of more than $6 million in prizes in America's Game .

One lucky player in Arizona won $400,000 playing the Powerball add-on feature, Power Play. The normal prize for matching 5 white numbers of $200,000 was multiplied 2 times due to the Power Play option.

Because no one correctly matched all six numbers the jackpot will grow... [ More ]
