Another chance to flush our money away without having to drive to WV or PA! Ohio will begin to sell Powerball along with the Mega Millions. I'll probably buy a ticket for the Saturday drawing.

Jackpot is $175 million for Wed... so if no one hits that, Ohio's first crack at the jackpot will be over $200 million.

I'm going to hit the Powerball and Mega Millions on the same day and then die of a drug and hooker overdose the next day. I leave my money to OhioChatter so they can fight the lawsuits from the other site.

Mega Millions: Tuesday and Friday
Powerball: Wednesday and Saturday

If you hit them on the Same day, you are some type of sorcerer

Back to back days works too though :)

Only check tickets on Thursday/Sunday and you could sort of win both the same day.

I've been playing both Mega Millions and Powerball in WV for a couple of months now.

Always had Powerball but just picked up Mega Millions.

When the two merge eventually, it's gonna be crazy stuff.

Mega up to $122 Million... same day that Powerball starts selling.

Retailers are going to be VERY busy Friday! It'll be even worse if no one hits Powerball tonight.

I have never purchased a lottery ticket. Powerball being available in Ohio won't give me an incentive to start.

I wish all of you luck and hope all of you win!

If your retirement plan includes the word lottery, you might be a redneck.
