One Sunshine Coast resident or visitor has started the week a Saturday Gold Lotto division one winner – they just don’t know it yet.
An unregistered entry bought on the Sunshine Coast was one of the ten division one winning entries across Australia in Saturday Gold Lotto draw 3877 on 15 September 2018. Each entry won the division one prize of $408,233.51.
The winning entry is not registered to a Winners Circle card so Golden Casket officials have no way of contacting the winner to break the life-changing news and have to wait until the ticketholder makes contact to claim their prize.
The winning entry was purchased at newsXpress Yandina, 2A Stevens Street, Yandina.
Golden Casket spokesperson Bronnie Spencer said she was eager to confirm the division one news with the Sunshine Coast’s newest winner and urged all Saturday Gold Lotto players to check their tickets as soon as possible.
“Imagine how your plans for the week would change after discovering you are now over $400,000 richer! While we don’t know the identity of the winning ticketholder, I’m sure they’d love to discover they are now a division one winner!” she said.
“You may not think it’s possible that you could be the division one winner we’re looking for, but if you purchased an entry in the Saturday Gold Lotto draw that you haven’t checked yet, you’re in with a chance!
“We’re urging all players to check their entries as soon as possible and if you discover you are holding the division one winning ticket to contact Golden Casket on 131 868 to begin the process of claiming your prize.”
