A customer, right, waits for his Powerball lottery ticket at a convenience store in Chicago on Saturday, May 18, 2013.

Should nobody pick the correct six numbers, the prize money will roll over to next week's drawing and almost certainly eclipse the $656 million doled out to winners in Illinois, Kansas and Maryland in the Mega Millions game in March 2012.
