The Mega Millions lottery games are giving away millions each and every week. However, there was no grand prize jackpot winner this week, meaning that totals have risen once again. Check the special sneak peak below for this week’s new amounts.
The brand new estimated total for this Tuesday's Mega Millions drawing has reached an estimated total of $51 million, with a cash value of $27 mil.
Meanwhile, the MM website is reporting on the recent $4 million winner:
“A $4 million prize awaits the lucky holder of a winning Match 5 Mega Millions ticket in Texas. The ticket, which included the optional Megaplier purchase for an extra $1, is worth $4 million thanks to the 4x Megaplier drawn on January 17. The ticket correctly matched the five white balls--1, 10, 26, 31 and 51--but missed the Mega Ball of 11.
“The $4 million winning ticket was sold at the Right Choice Food Mart #9 in San Antonio, Texas. It is the second Megaplied Match 5 prize won in Texas since Mega Millions was relaunched in October; the first was worth $5 million. North Carolina and Pennsylvania have also sold Match 5 winning tickets that included the Megaplier, worth $3 and $5 million, respectively.”
Who knows, you might just be the next big winner. In case you are, the website also a few tips to guide you:
“If you win a prize greater than $600, the state in which you won is required to notify the Internal Revenue Service. For tax information, here is a link to the IRS Web Site: www.irs.gov
