And two ticket-holders in Manitoba were winners on this past Saturday’s (July 3) Lotto 6/49 draw.
One ticket purchased in Winnipeg had five of the six winning numbers plus the bonus to claim $48,253 while another bought somewhere in Manitoba won $10,000 as one of 20 guaranteed prize draw winners. Tickets sold in British Columbia, Ontario and Quebec also matched the five winning numbers plus the bonus.
Meanwhile, no winning ticket was sold for the $11.6 million jackpot. However, the guaranteed $1 million prize went to a lottery player in Ontario.
The jackpot did not go – so, Wednesday’s (July 7) will be an estimated $14 million.
