Someone in Northland is having a Wednesday night they will never forget, winning $ 4.2 million from Lotto’s First Division Powerball.
The winning ticket was sold on MyLotto and is comprised of $ 4 million from Powerball First Division and $ 250,000 from Lotto First Division.
The big win comes just four days after someone in Christchurch made $ 5.2 million.
That prize, which belongs to the owner of a ticket purchased from the Hornby Mall Lotto, has yet to be claimed, as of Wednesday night.
