The Mega Millions’ jackpot for $450 Million took another step forward Saturday after nobody matched all six numbers the previous 33 consecutive drawings.

The winning numbers for Friday night’s drawing were 8, 10, 17, 55, 66, and the Mega Ball was 3. The Megaplier was 3X.

There was also no grand prize winner in Wednesday’s Powerball drawing after a winning ticket didn’t match all six numbers, forcing the jackpot to roll over.
