Dannevirke couple, Graham and Jo, are flying high after spinning a $100,000 prize on Lotto’s Winning Wheel at the live draw this evening, says NZ Lotteries’ Chief Executive Todd McLeay.

Graham and wife Jo are big horse lovers and are keen on buying another horse or two if they win big this weekend. Also on the shopping list are comfortable retirements and a property upgrade.

Graham works for a dairy farmer and his wife Jo works for a Dannevirke helicopter operator. Graham and Jo returned to New Zealand three years ago after a 20 year stint living in Australia.

As part of the Winning Wheel prize package, Graham and Jo enjoyed a luxury stay at The Amora Hotel in Wellington, and a shopping trip with a stylist for an outfit to wear on the show.

Tonight’s Winning Wheel ticket was bought at Graham’s Paper Plus in Tokoroa. The serial number is 021-53603080-20XX.

“Anyone who bought their ticket from the above winning store should write their name on the back of the ticket and check it immediately at any Lotto outlet – as they could be the next instant millionaire!"

All Lotto players are automatically in the draw to win the opportunity to spin Lotto’s Winning Wheel, regardless of the type of ticket they buy.
