After 12 days of carrying a winning Lotto ticket worth $2.7 million in her handbag, a NSW woman has stepped forward to claim her prize.
NSW Lotteries had been looking for the customer of the winning ticket, which was purchased in Wagga Wagga, since the January 3 draw.
The woman and her husband will now be able to top up their bank account with $2.72 million, their share of the $30 Million Megadraw.
"My husband and I had been visiting Wagga Wagga," said the woman, who wants to remain anonymous.
She had asked her husband to buy a Lotto ticket when he went to buy a newspaper, she said.
Apart from paying off their mortgage, the woman said she'll probably now only work part time rather than full time.
