Are the Lottery Jackpots Enough for Some Happy Holidays?

Millions of dollars will be up for grabs on Christmas Eve and Christmas Day. Here's what Georgia Lottery players could win in the two big drawings.

If Santa’s sleigh won’t be carrying everything on your Christmas list, the jackpots up for grabs in the two multi-million dollar games offered by the Georgia Lottery are bound to be enough to buy the things Claus can’t get.

As of Monday morning, the jackpot for Tuesday night’s Mega Millions drawing stood at $22 million—a prize that could fill anyone with joy on Christmas Eve.

But the biggest prize available in the midweek drawings is an estimated $74 million jackpot in Wednesday’s Powerball game. While the drawing will take place Wednesday night, after most of the presents have been removed from under the tree, that jackpot would surely be a Christmas Day gift worth waiting for.
