"It's always great to hear it is a local shopper who has won."
Dan Harris says staff at Stratford New World were delighted with the news a winning lotto ticket had been purchased from the store.
The lucky shopper won $51,339 in Lotto Second Division in Saturday night's draw, and came in on Sunday to verify their win.
"Apparently it was with numbers they chose themselves rather than a random selection," says Dan, who with his wife Rebecca owns and operates the Stratford New World.
"It's been a good few weeks for us here at Stratford New World. We gave away a car in an instore promotion recently and now have had a shopper win big on Lotto after buying their ticket at our store. It's great to see local shoppers rewarded in this way."
