ticket," says Mr Hall.
"Players can check their ticket by going to any Lotto store and running their ticket through a terminal, or by logging
on to NZLC's website http://www.nzlotteries.co.nz and checking their ticket against the winning serial numbers.
"Winners – who come to the Capital with a support person and get to stay at the luxury Duxton Hotel, have exhibition
passes to Te Papa, a shopping trip with a stylist to choose clothes for their TV appearance and a meal with a Lotto
Presenter - have said the trip to Wellington to spin the Winning Wheel has become a once-in-a-lifetime memory," he said.
