There was no winner for this past week’s Mega Millions lottery game, meaning that tonight’s jackpot is even closer to the $100 million mark. Check the report below to see how much you could win before you buy your tickets.
The all new total for tonight’s Mega Millions lottery jackpot total has reached an earth shaking $74 million with an estimated cash value option of $48 million.
It has been one amazing year for lottery players, with major jackpots being won left and right. However, the main money jackpot is not the only way to win. Smaller scale prizes are being handed out all time.
The official Mega Millions lottery website is reporting on one of the many smaller prize winners, who still won big:
“March 17, 2015 - Gloria Swanigan doesn’t make it a habit of arguing with automated voices on the telephone. And she sure wasn’t going to start considering the voice on the other end of the line was telling her she matched five of six numbers from the March 10 Mega Millions draw. Her lucky ticket was suddenly worth $1,092,958!
“‘I dialed the 1-800 (LOTTERY) number. And this crazy lady is giving me all my numbers,’ Swanigan recalled. She thought the automated voice was pulling a prank! ‘I still didn’t believe it so I went to my computer and looked up my numbers on the internet. I thought at first I’d won $1,000. But then I realized there were six (zeros). And you know the rest of the story!’
“It’s really an interesting story because of why Swanigan decided to check her numbers. She was up after midnight on March 12 trying to see if a $7,000 vacation separation check from the employer she’d retired from in January had been deposited into her banking account.”
