+162 MegaMillions didn’t have a mega jump

No one won last night and the jackpot went from $50 million to $60 million. I wonder if they realize that more than doubling the cost of the tickets wasn’t a great choice.

+38 @LPNTed Yeah ... Not going up by 50M a week is absolutely stupid.

+37 @loupr738 I won’t buy a $5, it could be a 2 billion jackpot and I’m not paying that type of money

+37 @No_Equal_1312 Not sure how the jackpot is figured but if it’s based by the number of people playing from what I’ve read on Reddit a lot of people are taking a pass on shelling out $5 for a ticket.

+30 @jackgranger99 If Powerball was smart they would make the starting pot $40 million while keeping it two bucks a pop and watch Mega overcharge themselves out of business.

+14 @SamWise6969 It’ll have to be 2.5 billion for me to even consider buying a single ticket now.
