The streak is over. No one won this week's Powerball lottery games, making it the first time in three weeks that a grand jackpot was not claimed. Now the new game total has risen. Check our special preview below for this week's new jackpot amount before you buy your tickets.
The new Powerball jackpot total has now reached a meager $60 million, but take that shotgun out of your mouth, because that is still enough for you and the family members you really care about to live off for the rest of your lives.
The lottery has been won twice in the last three weeks by lucky winners in California. However, both winners have yet to come forward. The official lottery website reports on the expiration dates:
“The Universe is decaying and nothing lasts forever. Ticket expiration periods vary from state to state--from 90 days to one year. They may also change from time to time. The back of your ticket will often give the expiration period for your state. If it is not on the back of your ticket, you might check with your state lottery by using the map. For obvious reasons, we don't want to give you wrong information about the time frame for cashing tickets with your lottery. In rare cases, your elected officials will change the expiration period (sometimes they run out of other stuff to vote on). They may shorten it even though you may find an old brochure or old ticket stock with a longer claim period. Often the lottery will honor your ticket in such a case, but if you plan to wait longer than 90 days to claim a big prize, you might just call up the lottery or go to the online site and double check on the expiration period.”
