TALLAHASSEE - Feeling lucky?

The Mega Millions jackpot for Friday night's drawing is $560 million.

Mega Millions tickets cost $2 and the odds of winning the jackpot are about 1 in 303 million.

If you want to increase your odds of becoming an instant multi-millionaire over the weekend, there's always the Powerball drawing on Saturday with an estimated jackpot will be $875 million. If someone hits it big, they can opt to take their winnings in a one-time lump sum payment of $441.9 million.

The Powerball prize is the third-largest in its history, officials said this week. A grand prize hasn't been won since April 19, and it has "rolled over" 36 times since then.  

While the overall odds of winning any number of the Powerball prizes are 1 in 24.9, the odds of winning the Powerball jackpot are 1 in 292.2 million, according to the organization.

Tickets cost $2, and drawings are each Monday, Wednesday, and Saturday.
