It’s possible a Narwee local or visitor to the region has gone about their Monday as normal without checking their Saturday Lotto ticket and discovering they’re now $2.5 million richer.

The mystery New South Wales player held one of the four division one winning entries across Australia in Saturday Lotto draw 4155, drawn Saturday 15 May 2021. Each entry won a division one prize of $2.5 million.

The ticket is unregistered so officials from The Lott have no way of contacting the winner to break the news. Instead, they must wait for the ticketholder to come forward and claim their prize.

The life changing entry was purchased at Broadarrow Newsagency and Tobacconist, 66 Broadarrow Road, Narwee.

Broadarrow Newsagency and Tobacconist owner Mandy Tiaw explained she was in celebration mode.

“I was so shocked when I heard the news that we’d sold another division one winning entry!” she exclaimed.

“I just can’t believe it!

“We’ve put up posters and we’ve got balloons everywhere. We’ve also been sharing the news with our customers and we are hoping our unregistered winner checks their ticket soon.

“Our customers are so happy for us and excited to know they could potentially hold the winning ticket.

“We last sold a $50 million Powerball division one winning entry in 2018. So, in three years, we have sold two division one winning entries.

“We are so happy for the winner and wish them all the best.”

The Lott spokesperson Ally Ramsamy said she was eager to unite the region’s newest multi-millionaire with their prize.

“It’s likely this winner has been going about their day as normal with no idea they’ve just won $2.5 million!” she said.

“We’re urging all players who purchased a Saturday Lotto ticket from Broadarrow Newsagency and Tobacconist to check their tickets today.

“Imagine how exciting it would be to realise you’ve just become a multi-millionaire! Your plans for the rest of the year could certainly change with those extra digits in your bank account!

“Make sure you check your ticket, which could be in your wallet, handbag, fridge door or car glovebox, because you could be the winner we are searching for.

“If you discover you are holding the winning ticket, contact The Lott on 131 868 to begin the process of claiming your prize.”
