\"\"Tonight’s Mega Millions<\/a> jackpot is worth $615 million.<\/p>\n

\"\"Canadians can buy tickets, but you’ll have to cross the border and we’ll tell you that probably won’t be a good enough reason to get across.<\/p>\n

Tickets are available online, but not through Mega Millions, through third party sellers and that can get risky.<\/p>\n

To guarantee a win by buying every single number combination, you would need to purchase 195,249,054 tickets. That would cost nearly $400 million.<\/p>\n

No one has won the Mega Millions lottery jackpot since September 15th.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"January 12th is the 12th day of 2021.
