KXLF is also reporting that the Montana Lottery is adding extra instant-win prizes in addition to the four $1 million grand prizes. On December 2, a brand-new $250,000 "Quarter Million Monday" game will replace the previous "Early Bird" draws. There are 200 more $500 instant wins and 2,500 more $100 instant wins among the extra instant win prizes. The popularity of Montana Millionaire has grown recently; in 2023, all 380,000 tickets sold out in five hours after being on sale.

As of posting today, here are the jackpots:

Remember that gambling smart involves setting limits, understanding odds, and managing finances responsibly. Before betting or purchasing, assess your motives and budget. Stick to a predetermined spending limit and avoid chasing losses. Recognize signs of problem gambling, such as neglecting responsibilities or lying about gambling habits. Seek support from loved ones or professional help if gambling starts to impact your life negatively. Remember, gambling should be enjoyable and within your means; if it's causing distress, it's time to reassess your habits. You can get some help here if needed.
