Plumpton is emerging as one of Sydney’s lottery hotspots after scoring its second Lotto division one win in three weeks.
An entry from Plumpton Marketplace Newsagency was one of the five division one winning entries nationally in the weekend’s Saturday Lotto draw 3961 on Saturday 6 July 2019. Each entry took home a division one prize of $774,826.59.
However, the identity of the region’s latest Lotto division one winner remains a mystery as the entry was not registered to a NSW Lotteries Players Club card.
Players are urged to check their tickets today if they purchased it at Plumpton Marketplace Newsagency, Shop T19, Plumpton Marketplace, Cnr Hyats Road & Jersey Road, Plumpton.
Plumpton Marketplace Newsagency owner Carlos Khair said he was ecstatic his outlet had sold its second division one win in less than a fortnight.
“I found out on Saturday night straight after the draw that we’d done it again. I was really surprised as our last one was about 18 days ago!”
“This is our fourth division one win in about nine months. We sold shares in division one winning syndicates in October and January, sold a division one winning entry last month and now this month,” he exclaimed.
“It’s just great news for Plumpton as it’s emerging as a bit of a hotspot for lottery wins.
“I hope the latest winner checks their ticket soon and discovers their windfall.”
NSW Lotteries spokesperson Matt Hart said he was eager to unite the player with their prize.
“We love delivering life-changing news and we can’t wait to break this news to our latest division one winner,” he said.
“If you had an entry into the weekend’s Saturday Lotto draw, we promise you it’s worth checking your ticket now.
“You could be our mystery division one winner! Just imagine how your plans for the rest of the year could change after you discover you’re almost $775,000 richer.
“If you realise you are holding the division one winning ticket, contact NSW Lotteries on 131 868 to begin the process of claiming your prize.”
