Powerball jackpot just shy of $1B ahead of Wednesday night drawing
With no winners on Monday night, the Powerball jackpot has rolled to an estimated $930 million ahead of its next drawing.
The jackpot has an estimated cash value of $429 million as of Tuesday morning. It has not been won since Sept. 6, when two winning tickets sold in Missouri and in Texas split a $1.787 billion prize.
Someone in Massachusetts won a $50,000 lower-tier prize on Monday night, by matching four of the first five numbers and the Powerball number on the ticket they bought at the Shaw's grocery store in Whitinsville.
The next Powerball drawing will be held at 10:59 p.m. on Saturday.
Tickets cost $2 each and can be purchased at Massachusetts State Lottery retailers across the state until 9:50 p.m. Saturday.
Powerball drawings are held every Monday, Wednesday and Saturday.
