One Kambah shopper is set to have a 2019 they’ll never forget – if only they would check their Saturday Lotto entry and discover they are more than $1.7 million richer.
The winner held one of the 17 division one winning entries nationally in Saturday Lotto draw 3907, drawn on Saturday 29 December 2018. Each entry took home a division one prize of $1,764,705.89.
As the entry is not registered to a Players Club card, NSW Lotteries has no way of contacting the winner to break the life-changing news.
The winning entry was purchased at Kambah Newsagency, 21 – 3 Primmer Court, Kambah Village Shopping Centre, Kambah.
Kambah Newsagency owner Vir Krishna Gorgia said he was delighted to have sold a division one winning entry and couldn’t wait for the winner to discover the news for themselves.
“I simply could not believe the news when I first found out! It’s like a dream come true,” he exclaimed.
“We’ve decorated the shop with balloons and posters. Most of our customers are local, everyday customers so hopefully they find out soon.
“We wish our winner a big congratulations. They’re going to have a happy new year when they find out.”
NSW Lotteries spokesperson Matt Hart said the unclaimed Kambah entry was one of the two division one winning entries from Saturday Lotto’s $30 Million Megadraw that landed in the Canberra region.
“Another winner from the region, a man from Queanbeyan, is already celebrating his Saturday Lotto windfall and plans to retire immediately. We can only wonder what this mystery Kambah winner will do with their prize,” he said.
“If you bought a ticket in Saturday Lotto from Kambah Newsagency, we urge you to check it now! You could be our mystery Megadraw millionaire.
“How would your plans for 2019 change with more than $1.7 million in your bank account?
“If you discover you are holding the division one winning ticket, contact NSW Lotteries on 131 868 to begin the process of claiming your prize.”
