$40 Million or More

Powerball enters record territory

The Powerball has now jackpotted to a guaranteed $40 million.

This could be larger if entries are like those we received when Oz Lotto reached this level. In the end, the first divison pool was around $48 million from all the extra entries it generated.
We have in store syndicates for Powerball that are in groups of 20 shares. These entries are in powerpicks where we select all the Powerballs in our entries so it doesn't matter which one comes out. We also get to pick an extra number. You can enter these on a first come, first served basis. We will continue to form new syndicates as long as we feel that we can sell all the shares we offer. (You may not realise that under the current rules we have to sell all the shares we make or we have to buy any unsold - not very fair to us and makes us very conservative making our syndicates.)

$19 Million Is On Again

Saturday Lotto $19 Prize


We have several different syndicates for sale for the draw on Saturday May 31st. These are local syndicates for our store customers. First in, best dressed. None reserved.


If you wish to join a bigger syndicate, we have access to shares in statewide ones. Here you can purchase larger shares in a big entry.


Another way to join a syndicate is to collect money from friends, family or workmates and put in your own syndicate.

Remember to register your entry. It only costs $3.30 yearly to become a registered player for all the games. Ask us for a form to become registered.

Good luck to all who enter.

Tele Footy Cards

Daily Telegraph Cards

The very popular footy cards being offered with the Telegraph coupons are causing huge problems because of the limited supply issued to us from the start.
Many customers have become quite upset and unfairly blamed us for these problems. Our staff is being diverted from other tasks to try and handle the huge number of enquiries at the counter and over the phone.

WE HAVE A SOLUTION!
We will continue to sell the cards whilst stock are available, but the Telegraph have promised to supply all we need by June 30th. This will allow us to fulfil all orders to complete collections.

YOUR REQUIREMENTS:
All orders placed with us will have to include an original coupon and prepayment before noon on Monday May 26th. We will take names and phone numbers to avoid errors when we distribute these backorders.

Many Local Wins

Lots Of Winners in Current Lucky Streak

We have been paying out lots of local winners over the last couple of weeks. We had a lot of lucky winners in Saturday Lotto as well as in the Oz Lotto record jackpot. These payouts are often up to $100 and many do not realise that they have had a win. Its great to see the reaction!

The number of wins too big for us to pay ($1,000 and over) has increased dramatically in the past two weeks. We have had a large number around $1,000 to $2,000 but also some over $3,000 and others up to almost $5,000.

This is great to see regular customers in the winners' circle. These prizes never make the headlines, but definitely have an effect on the winners. Often they prompt trips that were not contemplated before or just help pay mortgages. No one seems too unhappy about their wins.
