A little over a month ago, $1.33 billion, the third-largest lottery jackpot in U.S. history, was won by someone who purchased their Mega Millions ticket right here in Illinois at a Speedway gas station in Des Plaines. When you look at that kind of money, you wonder why the winner has not announced themselves to lottery officials yet.

With no one winning Wednesday night's Powerball jackpot, the estimated windfall for Saturday Night's drawing is $700 million, and that amount could go up between now and tomorrow.
