The receipt sat in the closet for almost three years. It’s worth taking a look: There are still various winnings from previous years waiting to be picked up.
A woman from Magdeburg signed up for Lotto-Toto with an almost three-year-old receipt Saxony-Anhalt reported – and picked up a profit of 100,000 euros.
A lottery spokeswoman in Magdeburg said she had correctly matched the six-digit winning number for the Super 6 lottery on her lottery ticket. Despite several reports about the win, she didn’t get in touch until shortly before Christmas.
The woman put her old game receipt away so that she could have it checked later. Even after 34 months, the receipt was in perfect order. A nice trip is at the top of the winner’s wish list.
It often happens that lottery winnings are not noticed immediately. According to Lotto-Toto, 660,000 euros are still waiting for their winners in 2021 in Saxony-Anhalt alone. Open prizes from 2021 can still be claimed until December 31, 2024.
