  I bought a Megamillions voucher with my VIP points and cashed it for tonight's drawing.  That will be my last quick pick for a long while.

  I don't blame ya. I was getting tickets today. And said to myself. This is stupid. I might stop buying myself. I'm down to one play per draw. But it's pretty cool you gotta ticket with your points. And good luck if you're playing tonight!

  Good luck to all playing today 🤞

  Will see us on the Friday draw if no one wins today.

  I got my $2 Lucky for Life ticket 🙏

  I believe winning the lottery jackpot is a 💯 % factor of luck.

  May Fortuna, goddess of chance or lot vindicate me.

  Jackpot probably would be higher if it was still a buck. 🤷‍♂️😂

  It's a bit comical to go back in years to look at the jackpot increases with the "dollar & a dream" price tag.

  Pretty soon we all will be talking about, " Does anyone remember what year they changed it from $1 to $2"?

  Thanks for the good luck wishes, but I won nothing on the free ticket.  My first 5 weeks are up, and since I won a few bucks on my regular line that I've been playing forever, I've decided to buy another 5 weeks.

  2017-10-31 the MM changed to $2.00

  The matrix changed to 5/70 and 1/25

  The Multiplier was Ball Drawn with x2 - x5

  I did not win either. My tickets are a 3x bonus. 🙄 But good luck with your tickets you just bought! 😜

  What we find interesting is the Jackpot is only increasing at $10 Million each draw.

  In past, it would be more than that and getting bigger increases as the Jackpot grew.

  We're not seeing that.

  In My Opinion, this might not reflect the actual increases that are needed to support the Jackpot annuity, meaning, the actual cash value to support such a Jackpot might not be entirely all there... just saying that is.

  It used to do that before they cut the starting point from $40M to $20M & blamed it on Covid. So basically they returned to the pre-Covid roll-overs, but start $10M higher & jacked the price up...

  Keep the $10M rollovers coming MM.... ..PB rollover has almost caught you after tonights rollover, now at $106M. After this coming Saturday, MM will be a pedestrian in the rear view mirror. Good luck to all participants.

  Well darn.....PB rolls to $123M and goes past MM. Looks as though I was a day off...Sorry about that.  Good luck to all

  Bad men need nothing more to compass their ends, than that good men should look on and do nothing.

  My new ticket is just a 2X and I'm stuck with that for 5 weeks. That sucks.  Good luck to y'all too!
