Good-bye trip around the world. Good-bye lazing on the beach. It’s back to reality for me.

One of two winning Mega Millions tickets was bought at a Safeway supermarket in Ephrata (eh-FRAY-tah), an Eastern Washington town, and the other in Idaho.

According to the Associated Press, Washington’s Lottery spokesman Scott Kinney said Wednesday the winners will be sharing a $380 million jackpot.   

He said that’s higher than the previous $355 million because of feverish sales before Tuesday night’s drawing.

The winning numbers were 4, 8, 15, 25 and 47, with 42 being the "Mega ball" number.

So what would you do with $380 million?
