A Nambucca Heads resident or visitor is poised to receive a tremendous boost to their bank account, but first, they need to check their Saturday Lotto ticket and discover their life-changing $2.58 million division one win.
The mystery player held one of the two division one winning entries in Saturday Lotto draw 4471 on Saturday 25 May 2024 and took home a total prize of $2,582,582.68.
However, the winning entry was not registered to a player card, which means officials from The Lott have no way of contacting the ticketholder and must wait for them to come forward.
The winning entry was purchased at Nambucca Heads Newsagency, 26 Bowra Street, Nambucca Heads.
Nambucca Heads Newsagency owner Stephen Kimber said he was over the moon to have sold his second-ever division one winning ticket.
“My wife and I couldn’t be more excited for our little town of Nambucca to score such a massive win,” he shared.
“We will continue to share this excitement in our store with balloons and signage for the coming weeks.
“We really hope our mystery winner checks their ticket soon and we wish them well as they enjoy their prize.”
The Lott spokesperson Khat McIntyre said she hoped northern New South Wales’ latest division one winner checked their winning ticket and came forward soon.
“Our elusive winner is likely oblivious to the fact they’ve won $2.58 million in the weekend’s Saturday Lotto draw,” she said.
“We’re encouraging anyone who purchased a Saturday Lotto ticket from Nambucca Heads Newsagency to check their tickets immediately!
“Can you imagine how exhilarating it would be to discover you’ve taken home $2.58 million and are a multi-millionaire in a single heartbeat? Your plans for the rest of 2024 and into the future would change quickly.
“Make sure you check your tickets, and if you do discover that you are holding the winning ticket, contact The Lott on 131 868 to begin the process of claiming your prize.”
