South Auckland is New Zealand’s luckiest region with another big lotto winner
AUCKLAND, NZ – Last night’s Big Wednesday winning ticket was sold at a Paper Plus in south Auckland. With two recent big wins in the area, South Auckland is easily the richest area in New Zealand in the past few weeks after scoring this Lotto hat-trick.
Last night’s Big Wednesday $4.8 million package has gone to a ticket bought from a Paper Plus store in south Auckland.
A few weeks ago a massive $28.7 million was won by a happy Papakura pig hunter – and two weeks later a Manukau truck driver won $5.4 million with a Powerball ticket.
Lottery officials are advising the latest winner to write their name and address on their ticket as soon as possible, and contact NZ Lotteries.
