Three Winning Wheel Winners Sought In Christchurch

Three Winning Wheel Winners Sought In Christchurch

NZ Lotteries is seeking the holders of three Winning Wheel winning tickets sold in Christchurch who are yet to claim their prize – a luxury weekend in Wellington and a chance to spin up a prize between $100,000 and a million dollars on the live Lotto draw, says Acting Chief Executive, Warren Salisbury

“There was a Winning Wheel ticket sold at Paper Plus New Brighton last Saturday that is yet to be claimed, and we’ve been waiting to hear from two others – one bought at Countdown Northlands in Papanui last month, and the other was bought at QEII Foodmarket way back in May 2011.”

“These winners have up to one year to claim their prize, so we encourage Christchurch Lotto players to check for those yellow tickets in the pocket of an old jacket, chucked under a car seat, or crumpled in a wallet – as a hunt around could dig up a treasure!” says Mr Salisbury.

The Winning Wheel prize package offers winners not only the chance to spin up to $1 million, but also a fantastic weekend in Wellington with flights and accommodation for two at the Intercontinental, plus shopping with a stylist, and hair and make-up done for the draw.

“Winners really get treated like royalty when they come to Wellington to spin the wheel, and the least they can go home with is $100,000 – so it’s worth searching for that ticket,” says Mr Salisbury.

“There have been eight Winning Wheel winners in total from the Canterbury region in the past year – five of which have spun and won already!”
