If you come across a Berrimah resident grinning from ear to ear today, it might be because they’re celebrating sharing a division one win in the weekend’s TattsLotto Superdraw.
The store syndicate was one of the 11 division one winning entries across Australia in TattsLotto draw 4257 on Saturday 7 May 2022.
In addition to winning a division one prize of $1,818,181.82, the syndicate’s System 10 entry also scored division three 24 times, division four 90 times and division six 80 times, boosting the syndicate’s total prize to $1,837,345.02.
Each of the 10 winning syndicate members received a share worth $183,749.60.
Shares into the syndicate were purchased at The Lucky Lotto Shop @ Fetch, Unit 3, 655 Stuart Highway, Berrimah.
The Lucky Lotto Shop @ Fetch owner Terri Polman said the division one win was a long time coming for their outlet and their local Northern Territory community.
“We have a wonderful bunch of regular customers who continue to support us, and we really do hope a few of them had a share of the division one prize!” she said.
“It was only last Friday that someone said to us, ‘You’re due for another division one win!’. Since owning the outlet, we’ve only sold one division one winning entry. That was back in 2011, which is over 11 years ago!
“We had a winner last with just one number off the division one prize in the $20 million Powerball draw. It seems it was brewing for us to have a division one win.
“As I always say, when you win division one in a store syndicate, there’s others to celebrate with! We’re celebrating in the outlet this week with a lot of bubbles and cheers.
“Congratulations to 10 of our customers and thank you for supporting us. We truly look forward to hearing your stories and what this win means for you and your family!”
However, some members of the Berrimah syndicate may have yet to realise their good fortune, prompting lottery officials to urge players to check their tickets as soon as possible.
The Lott spokesperson Anna Hobdell said some members held unregistered entries in the store syndicate and might have yet to discover their winning news.
“This Berrimah syndicate held one of the 11 division one winning entries across Australia in the weekend’s TattsLotto $20 Million Superdraw,” she said.
“We can just imagine some of these syndicate members have started planning what they will do with their windfalls, but some holding unregistered entries may have yet to discover their winning news.
“If you purchased a share into a syndicate for the recent TattsLotto 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!”
