Officials said it was the second multi-million dollar prize in the town this month, as a Forster man scored $20 million in Oz Lotto on November 2.

“We’re always telling our customers, ‘we’re due for one soon’, and it’s happened,” Deland said.
The Lott spokesperson James Eddy said in NSW lottery players had up to six years to claim their prize.
“However, we’re in the business of paying prizes, so we do hope the wonderful winner comes forward soon so we can start the process of paying the prize into their bank account,” Eddy said.
