For the second time in less than a month, the Mega Millions jackpot has been won. On Tuesday, a player in New Jersey matched all five white numbers and the gold Mega ball to win a $90 million jackpot.
The winner has the choice of receiving the money as an annuity or to take the cash option, which is worth an estimated $41.9 million.
The win comes just five drawings after a player in Georgia won a $983 million jackpot on Nov. 14. It marks the sixth time in 2025 that someone won the Mega Millions jackpot.
Along with the jackpot winner, a player in Georgia won a $4 million prize. Overall, 29 players won prizes worth between $20,000 to $100,000, according to Mega Millions.
The next drawing is scheduled for Friday, Dec. 5. The jackpot will be worth $50 million with a cash option of $23.3 million.

The last players from Michigan to win a Mega Millions or Powerball jackpot is the Breakfast Club lottery club which claimed an $842 million jackpot in June 2024. The members plan to use the money to buy a home in Florida and travel.
And while they were lucky winners, it’s smart for players to check their tickets immediately as a Powerball winner worth $250,000 sold in Bloomfield Hills in 2024 went unclaimed. That money went to the state’s School Aid Fund.
