The weekend has gotten even sweeter for two lucky New Zealanders, each pocketing $500,000 in Saturday's Lotto draw. 

The two players, from Taupō and the West Coast, won Lotto First Division. 

The winning tickets were sold at Pak N Save Taupo in Taupo and on MyLotto. 

Powerball was not struck and has rolled over to Wednesday night, with the jackpot sitting at $16 million.

Strike Four also rolled over tonight and will be $700,000 on Wednesday night - meaning it will be a Must Be Won draw.

In a Strike Must Be Won draw, if no single ticket wins First Division, the prize pool is added to the next highest division with winners.

Anyone who bought their ticket from the above store should write their name on the back of the ticket and check it immediately at any Lotto outlet, online at MyLotto.co.nz or through the Lotto NZ App.
