Two Lotto players from Auckland and Blenheim each won $500,000 in last night’s Lotto draw as Powerball rolled over. <\/p>\n
Powerball was not struck in last night’s draw, meaning the jackpot for Saturday night will now be $8 million. <\/p>\n
Two players would be celebrating, however, each winning $500,000 in first division. <\/p>\n
The winning tickets were sold at Woolworths Three Kings in Auckland and New World Blenheim in Blenheim.<\/p>\n
“Anyone who bought their ticket from any of the above stores should check their ticket as soon as possible in-store, on MyLotto, or through the MyLotto\u202fApp,” a Lotto spokesperson said. <\/p>\n
Strike Four was also not struck, and rolled over to Saturday night where the prize will be $400,000. <\/p>\n
