You have to get your tickets today, as the Powerball jackpot has swollen to $348 Million dollars.

Okay, so it's not quite the $1.5 billion dollar jackpot that captivated the dreams of people all across the country earlier this year, but $348 million isn't chump changer either. Tonight's drawing will take place at 9:59 p.m.

Still you have to admit the odds of winning are outlandish, 1 in 292,201,338.00

If there's no winner tonight, the jackpot will rollover to Saturday with a much larger jackpot..

For me, dreams of Doritos dance in my head. So I did the math, I could stop in Schnuck's by Cherryvale mall in Rockford and buy 79 million bags of Doritos (at $4.29 a bag).
