Here's the deadline to buy Mega Millions tickets for Friday's drawing in Arizona

The prize is record-breaking and there's still time to buy a ticket.

A record-breaking Mega Millions prize is up for grabs Friday night. But only if you have a ticket, obviously.

The Mega Millions jackpot is now up to $1 billion. It's the largest Mega Millions prize ever.

That's a whole lot of money and it could go to one lucky winner in Arizona. The last Mega Millions drawing took place on Tuesday, but no one claimed the big prize.

The drawing takes place at 8 p.m. Arizona time. The deadline was 6:59 p.m.

If no one claims the winning number Friday, lottery officials say the jackpot will soar to $868 million, with an estimated cash value of $495 million.
