Rollovers are par for the course with the Mega Millions Lottery and jackpots have been known to reach as high as $380 million in past draws although unlike many lotteries around the world the Mega Millions lottery is taxable on jackpot winnings. Not that I think anyone would mind paying tax on $380 million.
Twelve states participate in the lottery, increased from the original six showing the popularity of the lottery across many states.
To participate in the Mega Millions Lottery players need to pick five numbers between 1 and 56. These are the Mega Millions white balls. They will also need to pick one single number between 1 and 46, this is the Mega Ball number.
Tickets for the Mega Millions Lottery cost $1 each and are available to purchase right up until 15 minutes before the draw takes place at 10pm EST on Tuesday and Friday evenings.
Overall chances of winning a prize in the Mega Millions Lottery stand at 1 in 40 and to win the jackpot you are looking at a one in 175 million chance which makes it clear why there are so many rollovers in the lottery. The jackpot starts at $12 million but soon grows as it rolls from week to week.

The UK had never had its own lottery, until 1994 that is when the UK national Lottery was launched and took the country by storm. Tickets cost £1 and have remained at that price since the start of the lottery although the lottery has gone through many other changes since its launch.
PLAY NOW
Originally a once weekly Lotto the National Lottery has now expanded to twice a week and the draws have expanded too. Although there was just the lottery draw to begin with, now you can play other draws like the Daily Picks, Thunderball, Dream Number plus a whole host of instant win games.
To play the National Lottery you must choose six numbers between 1 and 49, a popular lottery format around the world ensured a tried and trusted lottery game. To win the National Lottery jackpot you will need to match all six of your numbers to the six numbers drawn.
Also in a Uk National Lottery draw a bonus ball is chosen, you will not need this if you match all six numbers but it does become the all important ball if you match five, that’s because matching five and the bonus ball can make the difference of hundreds of thousands of pounds than matching five without the bonus.
Odds of winning the lottery are long but there are many prizes available right down to £10 for matching three numbers, you can play the UK National Lottery at any lottery retailer or at the National Lottery website.

Last year a survey was taken of the UK’s luckiest lottery towns, that is the towns in the UK that had the highest proportion of lottery winners. Of all the towns in the survey only one Scottish town made it and that was Perth, making it Scotland’s luckiest place to be a lottery winner.
PLAY NOW
That has never been truer than this week when a lady walked into a Perth shop to have her lottery ticket checked and was told that it was worth £7.4 million. The shocked shopkeeper informed the lady she would need to contact Camelot – the lottery organisers – for a win that big and pointed her in the right direction. It’s now said that the shop is very lucky as only last week another customer won £1,000 on a scratch card in the store.
Although Camelot have confirmed a winner from that area, the winners name was not released after she asked for no publicity.
Of course it’s not just the shop that is lucky, that whole area of Scotland is deemed to be a National Lottery hotspot with over £25 million of Lotto winnings hitting the area.
So if you are looking for somewhere lucky to place your lottery tickets maybe Perth is the place to be lucky on the lottery right now.

When Natalie McDonald was part of a works syndicate that scooped over £2 million on the National Lottery her boss quit her job, sold the hairdressing salon that they all worked at and made them all redundant after deciding her share of the win was enough to quit work on.
PLAY NOW
Yet that wasn’t enough to put Miss McDonald off, she was determined to carry on working despite her lottery win and simply purchased another premises a few doors down the road and reopened.
After refitting the business and a full refurbishment making it a salon she has employed she other staff who were made redundant and the whole lot of them are now working in this thriving little business.
None of the hairdressers at the salon wanted to quit work but it seemed they would have no choice when the owner sold up but now they are all working together, doing the job they love, for the same wage as before despite each one of them being almost £500,000 richer.
It is said that one in three lottery winners continue working after a big win and these girls were no different, they say they love their jobs and now as all their regular customers are turning to the new salon, each of them says they couldn’t be happier in their work.

Lotto in the uk – The odds of winning the Lotto are pretty high but we’ve found something that comes with even greater odds, in fact it’s so odd the odds really are stacked against it. In the Nebraska daily pick 3 lottery last Tuesday night the numbers chosen were exactly the same as the winning numbers from the night before, they even came out in the same order.
PLAY NOW
As unlikely as it may seem, and many players thought there had been an error, it really did happen. A Nebraska Lottery spokesman said that one of the two lottery computers that generate random combinations of numbers picked the numbers 1, 9 and 5, in that order for Monday nights Pick 3 draw. He says the other computer of the two picked exactly the same three numbers on Monday night too, in that order.
They say the odds of the same numbers being selected in the same order two nights running are more than one million to win.
And players clearly feel the same, as the player who won Mondays $600 top prize didn’t use the same numbers the following night and missed out on Tuesdays top prize. But that top prize was won by three other players who choose the same numbers that had been drawn the night before.
Confused? Yes us too, imagine how the players watching the draw must have felt.

It’s a new year and to ring in the changes there are some big happenings in the Powerball Lottery. The lottery has gone through many changes since its launch, including a name change and changes to the way the lottery is played.
PLAY NOW
The changes came into force on January 4th 2009 and it’s an exciting time for the Powerball Lottery, the starting jackpot on the lottery is now increased from $15 million to $20 million, making it the worlds largest guaranteed jackpot for a lottery style game. The average Powerball jackpot will also increase from an estimated $85 million to $141 million as lottery organisers increase the percentage of prize funds dedicated to the jackpot prize.
Ti increase the jackpot size, four white balls are to be added to the game, increasing the total of white balls to 59, three red Powerballs are also to be removed from the game, making a total of 39. These changes will alter the odds of winning the jackpot from one in 145 million to one in almost 200 million.
The final change to the lottery is an extra state. Florida joined the multistate lotto from 4th January and to commemorate the change the draws will now be held in the state.
The one thing that hasn’t changed is the prize, Powerball lottery tickets will still cost $1 each.

The Huge Spanish Lottery has gone off in Spain and the Christmas lottery brought many winners across the country, the El Gordo or the fat one as it is known as drawn on Monday 22nd of December and is a big event considering it is the richest lottery in the world.
PLAY NOW
Over €2 billion in prizes were claimed altogether in the lottery offering financial security for many players across Spain. The lottery launched in 1812 is a national institution in Spain and the whole country comes to a standstill to watch the televised draw that runs all day.
The top prize went to holders of the tickets bearing the number 32365 and that number was on almost 2,000 tickets. Each of those players are now €300,000 richer.
Although the lottery is the richest in the world, the prize money is shared between many Spanish players rather than having a huge jackpot in the hope that it can improve the lives of many rather than making just one person rich.
The next big lotto draw from the Spanish Lottery will be the el nino, this is played in early January across Spain and it’s not too late to purchase tickets for that draw.
Congratulations to all the lucky players who won a prize in the El Gordo and good luck for the January El Nino lottery too.

The free online lotto is great fun and a great way to enjoy the lottery each week without having to part with your cash. It doesn’t hold an appeal for me though as I already use several global Lottery services to play lotteries from around the world.
PLAY NOW
I play the UK National Lottery, the Euromillions Lottery, Mega Millions Lottery and Powerball through the worldlottery.net website and find it informative, helpful and easyt o play from one source. These aren’t the only lotteries you can play from the site that links through to thelotter.com but these are my personal favourites.
That’s not to say the free online lotto is not for you, there’s hundreds of thousands to win every week on the free lotto and many hundreds of people play every day. You receive an email every morning with the numbers and you can match them to your own numbers to try and win.
If you really like the free lotto site then you can upgrade and pay for tickets, increasing your chances of winning further.
Personally I’ll stick to my world lottery draws with the sites I already use but If you are looking for a free way to play the lottery online then why not try out the free lotto online? iT’s good fun and you might win some cash along the way.
