Mega Millions jackpot reaches $379 million for Friday’s drawing

The Mega Millions jackpot continues to climb as it stands at $379 million for Friday night’s drawing.

A North Carolina winner would have the choice of taking home the $379 million as an annuity or $202.6 million in cash.

Even though the jackpot remains up for grabs, North Carolinians are still taking home other nice prizes. In Tuesday night’s drawing, a lucky ticket matched four white balls and the yellow Mega Ball to win $10,000. The ticket was purchased at the Convenience Corner on Marlboro Street in Hamlet in Richmond County.

The Mega Millions jackpot has been on a roll since two tickets in Florida and California split a $502 million jackpot in the Oct. 14 drawing. The odds of winning a Mega Millions jackpot are 1 in 302.5 million.

The Powerball also has been on a roll recently as Saturday’s jackpot is up to $116 million, or $61.3 million in cash.

Players can buy Mega Millions tickets at any lottery retail location or through Online Play on the lottery’s website, www.nclottery.com, or with the lottery’s app, the NC Lottery Official Mobile App.

In a drawing 556 was the and fireball number 6 winner lottery number and I had 555 with the fireball added Giving me a combination of 655 565 556 Yet they said I am not a winner explain that to me if the fireballl was added and it matched the last combinationNC Lottery
Hi, Henrietta! Fireball can replace any of the drawn numbers to give you more winning combinations to match, but your numbers always remain the same. With the drawn numbers of 556 and Fireball 6, you could make the additional combinations of 6-5-6 or 5-6-6, and if you had either of those it would be a winning combination. Hope this helps to clarify!
