Two winning Lotto tickets sold in Whanganui in the past week have scored a total of $550,000.

One lucky Strike player won $300,000 with Strike Four in last Wednesday's draw. Their ticket was sold at Whanganui Pak'n Save.

Another player will receive $250,000 after winning Saturday's Lotto first division alongside three other players.

The winning local ticket was sold at New World Whanganui, while two other winners were sold on MyLotto to players in Auckland, and the fourth winning ticket going to a Christchurch player.

This week's wins follow a run of Lotto luck around the region in recent months.
