The search is on for the owner of a Saturday Lotto ticket now worth $2,519,100.
Across the country two tickets matched the numbers to a Division One prize in the weekend’s draw, one from Western Australia and the other from New South Wales.
The WA ticket was sold from Mundaring Lotto and Gifts. This is the store's second Division One win in just two weeks, thanks to Saturday Lotto.
Lotterywest spokesperson Zoe Wender said the WA winners tally is now up to 59, with players sharing in prizes totalling more than $112 million.
“If you bought a Saturday Lotto ticket in Mundaring recently, make sure to check it as soon as you can,” she said.
“Along with this player, we’re also waiting to hear from the ticketholder who won $1.28 million in last weekend’s draw.”
Gareth Murgatroyd of Mundaring Lotto and Gifts said the store was excited about celebrating two Saturday Lotto wins in just two weeks.
“It creates a real buzz around town when we get a Division One win, and two in two weeks is just fantastic,” Mr Murgatroyd said.
“It makes it really exciting for all our customers.”
In other good news, across the State nine players won Division Two prizes, now worth more than $12,000 each.
Thanks to WA players and retailers, Lotterywest is able to support community groups across the State through grants, with all available profits from ticket sales going back to the WA community.
A $15,000 grant was recently provided to Superfins WA who host events to provide social and recreational opportunities for people with a disability.
The next chance for WA players to win big is in this week’s $50 million Powerball jackpot on Thursday.
Tickets are available until 6pm on draw day in-store, online or via the Lotterywest App.
