Good news awaits one Lismore resident or visitor who scored $1 million in last night’s Monday & Wednesday Lotto draw – precisely one year since the floods devastated the community.
The elusive player held one of the four division one winning entries in Monday & Wednesday Lotto draw 4264 on Monday 27 February 2023 and takes home a total prize of $1,000,000.00.
The winning entry is unregistered, which means officials from The Lott have no way to contact the winner to break the exciting news and must wait for them to come forward to claim their prize.
The division one winning entry was purchased at Lismore Central Newspro, Shops T10 Lismore Central Shopping Centre, 44 Carrington Street, Lismore.
Lismore Central Newspro manager Nicole Renshaw said the winning news was a breath of fresh air for the community, which was heavily impacted by flooding a year ago.
“It’s really good news! Coincidentally it was won last night in Monday & Wednesday Lotto, which marks 12 months since the Lismore floods,” she said.
“While we’re happy for whoever has taken home this life-changing win, we do hope it goes to a deserving local who has been battling the aftermath of the floods in the last year.
“We’ve had quite a few people come in to check their Monday & Wednesday Lotto tickets, hoping they’re the mystery winner we’re looking for.
“Congratulations to the mystery winner and we hope we’re able to share the winning news with them soon!”
The Lott spokesperson Anna Hobdell said she couldn’t wait to unite Lismore’s latest division one winner with their spectacular prize.
“It’s likely our latest winner is going about their day as normal with no idea they’ve won division one!” she exclaimed.
“We’re urging all players who purchased a Monday & Wednesday Lotto ticket from Lismore Central Newspro to check their tickets today.
“Imagine how exciting it would be to realise you’ve won $1 million! Your plans for the rest of the year would certainly change with that prize in your bank account.
“Make sure you check your ticket, which could be in your wallet, handbag, fridge door or car glovebox because the winner could be you and you could be planning what to do with your prize too!
