Pukekohe couple wins $1 million in Lotto with ticket bought from spare change

Mildred Armah Reporter from Central Leader

A trip to the supermarket ended up being life-changing for a couple whose decision to pick up a Lotto ticket with spare change they found in the car saw them win $1 million.

The man, who wished to remain anonymous, usually picks up his Lotto tickets online at MyLotto – but last week, he and his wife decided to do things a little differently.

“We’d just parked up at the supermarket and my wife was poking around in the middle console looking for something, when I spotted a bunch of change rattling around in there which she kept in the car for parking meters and that kind of thing,” the man, from Pukekohe in rural south Auckland, said.

Three lovely black miniature poodle puppies available now

Renee from Mount Eden

They are 11 weeks old

There are two girls and one boy. We've called them Honey, Heather and Horatio, but of course you can choose your own name.

They are sweet and very bright - they are playful, but also love cuddles.

Each has their own cute personality - Honey is an athlete, Heather is sweet and cheeky and Horatio likes to sit on boxes.

The breeder is registered with Dogs NZ and we can provide pedigree papers for the pups.
The puppies have been vaccinated and wormed.

Message me if you are interested and you'd like to come and meet them. :)
