Lottery tickets worth $1M and $100K sold in Kitchener and Guelph
If you purchased a Lotto Max ticket in Kitchener or Guelph last week, you’ll want to check those numbers!
While no one claimed the big $70 million jackpot, two lucky players will each take home a $1 million prize.
“As we say here, there’s no such thing as a small million,” said OLG spokesperson Tony Bitonti.
The winning Maxmillions tickets were sold in Kitchener and Kingston.
Two additional Encore prizes, worth $100,000, were sold in Guelph and Newmarket.
The winners have one year to claim their prize and the tickets will be valid even if they’re ruined or have been misplaced.
“We do have a CSI-type lab at OLG that we can reconstruct tickets that have been destroyed in the wash, that have been eaten by a dog,” Bitonti explained. “But, for the most part, people do keep their tickets handy somewhere.”
Players in Waterloo Region were pretty lucky in 2023.
“There was more than $6 million just won in the KW-Cambridge area,” Bitonti said.
This week’s jackpot will be $70 million, with an estimated 14 Maxmillions prizes up for grabs.
