CLEVELAND (AP) - Lottery officials say no one in Ohio or any other state won the latest Powerball jackpot and the top prize has increased to $500 million for the next drawing, which is Wednesday.

That means you could take home $327 million. How would you spend it?

That's the largest jackpot ever for the multi-state game. It comes as the Christmas shopping season gets under way in earnest.

The Powerball numbers for Saturday were 22-32-37-44-50, and the Powerball was 34.
