The woman then tucked her ticket away and didn’t think twice about it until the following morning. “I was having a shower the next morning when my sister yelled through the bathroom door, ‘the winning Lotto ticket was purchased from Pak N Save Richmond!’” “It was the quickest shower of my life – I jumped straight out of there to check my ticket,” laughed the woman.

After the win was confirmed, it was celebration time, with bubbles for the adults and grape juice for the kids. “I scanned my ticket through the Lotto NZ App and saw ‘Major prize’ appear on the screen – I couldn’t believe it! I had no idea how much I had won, so my sister and I went straight down to the supermarket to check.”
