Lotto luck
'Lotto-mania' has .gripped the Waimarino and around 800 saies are made each week over the counter of Ohakune Post Office - the agents for Lotto. Figures released by the Ohakune agency reveal that there were 155 winners of fourth and fifth division prizes in the first six weeks, with the agency paying out roughly 25 percent of their takings each week. One particularly lucky Raetihi lady had six 'collects' in as many weeks. The largest sum to be paid out was $47. Keep trying Waimarino - Division One is bound to come our way eventually!
