🎉 Nine Lotto Winners Hit Big — Each Takes Home $111,111! 🎉

Talk about a lucky night! Nine Lotto players from across New Zealand — including Kaitaia, Auckland, Waikato, Papamoa, Hastings, Horowhenua, Lower Hutt, and Wellington — are celebrating after each snagged $111,111 in Saturday’s Lotto First Division draw.

Here’s where the magic tickets were sold:

  • Marston Moor (Kaitaia)

  • Botany Road Superette & Pak’nSave Papakura (Auckland)

  • Papamoa Beach Superette (Papamoa)

  • Bay Plaza Pharmacy (Hastings)

  • Four Square Waterloo (Lower Hutt)

  • Whitcoulls Lambton Quay (Wellington)

  • Plus two lucky MyLotto players from Waikato and Horowhenua

But that’s not all… 💥
While Powerball wasn’t struck this time, the jackpot has rolled over to a massive $30 million for Wednesday night — so the dream is still alive for everyone else!

Adding to the excitement, two Strike Four players are also celebrating after pocketing $100,000 each. Their tickets were bought at Kawerau Food Market and Lotto and by a MyLotto player from Central Otago.

👉 If you grabbed a ticket from any of these spots (or played online), check your ticket ASAP — you could be next in line for a windfall.

Fun fact: Every Lotto NZ purchase helps local communities thrive. 100% of Lotto NZ profits go back to Kiwi communities through lottery grants managed by Te Puna Tahua – NZ Lottery Grants Board.
