Mystery surrounds unregistered tickets as excitement grows over recent Lotto jackpot

Imagine starting your day as usual, only to discover you're now $2 million richer.

This dream scenario is a reality for two lucky Sydneysiders—if only they would check their Lotto tickets! Over the weekend, two individuals unknowingly struck gold, each securing a division one prize in Saturday's Lotto draw.

But with the winning tickets unregistered, anticipation builds as The Lott eagerly awaits the winners' coming forward to claim their life-changing prizes.


The two winning tickets were purchased just a stone's throw apart in the bustling inner city of Sydney.

One was sold at an Ezymart on Crystal Street in Waterloo and the other at the Kings Cross Newsagency on Darlinghurst Road.

The proximity of these outlets suggests that the winners could be neighbours, colleagues, or even friends, unaware that they share a multi-million-dollar secret.

Matt Hart, a spokesperson for The Lott, expressed his excitement and hope for the winners to discover their newfound wealth.

'Our elusive winners are likely oblivious to the fact they each won $2 million in the weekend's Saturday Lotto draw,' he said.


The Lott urges anyone who bought a Lotto ticket from the specified outlets to check their tickets immediately.

The thrill of such a discovery would be nothing short of life-changing, with the potential to alter the winners' plans for the year and far beyond.

If you're in the habit of playing the Lotto, consider setting up a player card or an online account where your tickets can be automatically registered.

This way, you won't miss out on any prizes due to an unregistered ticket.


And remember, it's not just the jackpot you could be missing out on—many smaller prizes often go unclaimed simply because people forget to check their tickets.

For our Sydney-based members, if you recently visited Ezymart Waterloo or Kings Cross Newsagency, it's time to double-check those Lotto tickets—a $2 million surprise could be waiting for you.
