A Hawke's Bay Lotto shop has sold its 47th lucky ticket, with a customer scooping $11 million in last night's Lotto draw. The winning ticket was sold at Unichem Stortford Lodge in Hastings, which over the years has sold a total of 47 winning tickets and cemented itself as the "luckiest" Lotto store in New Zealand. Ormerod said she was unsure who had actually sold the winning ticket, as multiple staff members worked on the Lotto desk. Unichem Stortford Lodge takes out the top spot for the "luckiest" Lotto store with the total number of winnings it has given out reaching $39 million. Pak'nSave Riccarton in Christchurch comes in third with 32 winning tickets sold with a total of $35.9 million.
