If you score both, you would find yourself basking in a cool estimated $1.3 billion.

If you're planning getting in on the Mega Millions drawing for Friday, each ticket costs $2. Winners must match all the numbers, including the Mega Ball, to take home the full sum. Powerball players must correctly match all five white balls as well as the red Powerball for $2 a ticket.
