World News owner Anandrav Barot said he was bursting with excitement when he found out his group syndicate had crowned 174 winners across the state.
“I was very excited and happy when I found out that we had sold a division one winning entry, and even happier to hear that it was our group syndicate!” he said.
“We will put posters and balloons up everywhere in our store to let our customers know that we’ve sold a division one winning syndicate.
“This is our fourth division one winning entry since I’ve owned the newsagency. The last division one winning entry that we sold was in September 2015!
“I’m sure every syndicate member has some amazing dreams and aspirations to complete with their prize. Congratulations to all of our syndicate members and we hope you enjoy your prize!”
The Lott spokesperson Anna Hobdell said some syndicate members held unregistered entries and might have yet to discover their winning news.
“It’s been a winning weekend for more than 174 syndicate members across the east coast. We can imagine the winning news had kicked off some Mother’s Day celebrations earlier than expected,” she said.
“While we’ll be reaching out to those syndicate members who registered their entries, there are many who have unregistered entries and may not yet know they’re part of this winning group.
“If you purchased a share in a syndicate for the weekend’s Saturday Lotto draw, today’s the day to check it!
“If you discover you’re holding a winning share, call The Lott on 131 868 to start the prize claim process!”
