Everyone's Favorite Mega Millions and Powerball Numbers

The Mega Millions jackpot just crossed the $700 million mark! This typically happens twice a year, most recently in August of 2023 when the prize soared to a record $1.6 billion dollars. It can take over a month of drawings with no winners to reach this level, but it can be gone in an instant, so make sure you order your tickets!

Mega Millions draws every Tuesday and Friday at 11 pm est. To play you start by selecting five lucky numbers between 1 and 70, then you pick a Mega Ball between 1 and 25. All numbers have an equal chance of getting drawn, though there are some steps you can take to make sure you’re getting the biggest share of the prize!

Mega Millions players like to choose numbers that mean something to them like birthdays, anniversaries and other important milestones. If a jackpot hits with lots of low numbers, it’s more likely you will be splitting the prize with others. For your best chance at taking the prize home all for yourself, try selecting larger numbers or even using Lotto.com’s quick pick tool to have a set of numbers randomly generated for you.

If you take a look at the winning numbers for the three drawings before last year’s historic jackpot hit, you’ll see numbers in the 40s, 50s and 60s consistently drawn. It’s no surprise that the jackpot finally hit when the winning numbers were 13, 19, 20, 32, 33 and a Mega Ball of 14.
