Jackpot Now $476M: How Would You Spend It?

Because no one had all six numbers to win Tuesday's Mega Millions lottery, Friday's draw will be the largest in the game's history.

If you bought a Mega Millions lottery ticket for Tuesday's drawing, the bad news is that no one hit all six numbers, meaning that the estimated jackpot for Friday's drawing will grow to a record $476 million, City News Service reports.

The good news is 47 tickets were sold with five numbers, including nine in California; each is worth $308,573. (None were sold in Eagle Rock, however.)

The other piece of good news is that you still have a chance to win! Here's a list of a few places in Eagle Rock where you can buy a Mega Millions ticket for Friday's drawing:
