A $5.5 million winning Lotto ticket purchased in Morrinsville remains unclaimed. Almost seven days have passed since Lotto announced the multi-million dollar draw had been won in Powerball. Lotto’s head of communications and corporate social responsibility Marie Winfield said anyone who bought a ticket for the draw on October 17 needed to check their ticket. While most claim their prize within a few days of winning, some leave it a little longer. In 2014, a Hamilton couple sat on their winning of $16.2m for ten days.
