On Tuesday night, South Carolinians can play for a chance at a $120 million Mega Millions® jackpot and Wednesday night try for the $110 million Powerball® top prize.

"Having two jackpots advertised at more than $100 million for both games is rare and thrilling for our players," said the Lottery's Executive Director Paula Harper Bethea. "We want our players to have fun and above all play responsibly."

Tickets for the Mega Millions jackpot must be purchased by 10 p.m. Tuesday night for the 11 p.m. drawing. Tickets are $1 and are available at lottery retailers statewide.

Tickets for Wednesday's Powerball® drawing must be purchased by 9:59 p.m. for the 10:59 p.m. drawing. Powerball tickets are $2 a play.

Odds of winning either jackpot are about 1 in 176 million.
