Easter is set to become even more exciting for a fortunate player who secures the $70 million Oz Lotto prize in the upcoming draw. This massive jackpot represents one of the largest lottery offers in Australia for the year, attracting a significant increase in ticket sales as the draw deadline approaches at 7:30 PM AEST tomorrow.
Should someone win the impressive $70 million, they will not only become an instant millionaire just in time for Easter but will also become the second-largest individual lottery winner in Oz Lotto history. The anticipation surrounding the draw is palpable, with reports indicating that thousands of entries are expected to flood in both at retail outlets and online.
According to The Lott spokesperson Anna Hobdell, the last instance of a $70 million draw was in January 2023, where sales peaked at an extraordinary 4,297 tickets purchased in a single minute. This year, excitement is anticipated to replicate those high sales figures as players us eagerly gearing up for a chance at life-changing amounts.
Hobdell urged players to ensure they register their tickets with The Lott Members Club. This registration is crucial; it guarantees winners won’t miss a call to claim their prize, as was the case for a woman from Elizabeth Hills, Sydney, who received a life-changing notification after winning a $100 million prize last February thanks to her ticket being linked to her online account.
As the draw approaches, the hope is to create more winning stories and transform lives across the nation. For those who may need guidance or support regarding gambling, assistance is available through the National Gambling Helpline at 1800 858 858.
With such a significant amount on the line, players are encouraged to participate and register, spurring excitement for what could be a festive Easter for one lucky individual.
