That being said, some tickets were in fact, winners.

For example, in Tuesday night's drawing the winning numbers were 12, 41, 43,52.55, and a megaplier of 09.

My wife and I's ticket had the correct number for the megaplier, so we won $2, it's not much but it's still fun to say we had a winning lottery ticket!

The Megamillions Jackpot Reaches Its 7th Biggest Jackpot Ever

After no winners for Tuesday night's drawing, the Megamillions jackpot now grows to an estimated 740 Million dollars.

That would be the 7th biggest jackpot in Megamillion's history.

And if you live in Jersey, the odds may be in your favor since we have a pretty steady history of winning lotteries, especially in September.
