Highlights
- Over the past few weeks, the group had stopped buying lottery tickets. When one of the members of the group had a premonition, they decided to create a new group.
- A wise decision that made each of them $71,428 richer!
- Ms. Garcia Sanchez, one of the winners, had never taken part in their group purchases. This lucky win will enable her to continue her studies in health care.
- Mr. Jude Albert was the first member of the group to receive her cheque in the winners lounge. He was still in disbelief! He plans on paying off a few debts and put some money aside for his family.
