ATLANTA – Mega Millions is bringing holiday cheer as the jackpot continues to roll with an estimated $257 million to a single annuity winner for Tuesday’s drawing.
The jackpot began rolling Oct. 4 and has rolled 17 times.
Two winning tickets worth $5,000 were sold in Rising Fawn and Atlanta from the Nov. 29 drawing.
Mega Millions offers two jackpot payment options: the $257 million annuity prize paid out as one immediate payment followed by 29 annual graduated payments; or the cash option, which is approximately $139 million.
It only takes $1 to play Mega Millions for a chance to win big. Players can multiply prizes with the Megaplier option for an additional $1 per play.
As with all other Georgia Lottery games, proceeds from Mega Millions will benefit education in the state of Georgia.
Since its first year, the Georgia Lottery Corp. has returned more than $14.8 billion to the state of Georgia for education. All Georgia Lottery profits go to pay for specific educational programs, including Georgia’s HOPE Scholarship Program and Georgia’s Pre-K Program. More than 1.6 million students have received HOPE, and more than 1.3 million 4-year-olds have attended the statewide, voluntary prekindergarten program.
