Two local Lotto players had a roaring Saturday night, together winning more than half a million dollars.
A Northlander won $500,000 in Lotto’s first division after splitting the $1 million prize pool with a second winner from Hamilton. The winning ticket in Northland was bought from MyLotto.
Whangārei Heads locals should check their tickets too after Four Square Parua Bay sold a separate winning ticket, worth $23,450.
The lucky Lotto player is one of 13 nationwide to take home some of the second division prize money.
