She said they are expecting around 1.25 million tickets to be sold for tonight’s draw.
It’s the first time the jackpot has been $30m since October last year.
Powerball was not struck on Wednesday evening and rolled over to tonight, where the jackpot will be $30 million.
McCormack said they typically see people who don’t usually play at lower jackpots grab a ticket as it climbs to higher levels.
“Our advice to players is that with a high jackpot, when there is a high demand for tickets, they get in early by picking up a ticket before draw day or early on the day to avoid the busiest times both instore and online.”
