The Powerball jackpot is expected to reach some $400 million for Wednesday's (August 7th) drawing after nobody won on Saturday. That's still below the record $590.5 million jackpot won in May by an 84-year-old Florida woman, but would be the third-largest Powerball jackpot ever and the fourth-largest lottery prize on record. Powerball tickets doubled in price to $2 in January 2012 as part of a plan to help jackpots get bigger faster. Powerball is played in 43 states (including South Dakota), Washington, D.C., and the U.S. Virgin Islands.

What's the first thing you would buy if you won the jackpot?
