Big Wednesday has jackpotted this week with $500,000 cash added to the prize line-up - but a very lucky MyLotto player from New Plymouth will heading to New York with three friends for a luxury holiday thanks to the Trump Up Your Life promotion that was drawn tonight, says NZ Lotteries' Chief Executive, Todd McLeay.

"This winner must have found a four leaf clover for St Patrick's Day, because they have just won six nights in New York, staying at Trump Soho Hotel, a chance to meet Donald Trump himself, a chauffeur driven limousine for the time they're there, passes to Donald Trump's ultra-exclusive golf course, a personal shopping assistant, a Broadway show, $100,000 to come home too, and lots more.

"The winner's friends and family will also be thanking their lucky stars, as three of them will join the winner on this amazing trip, and they'll all get US$10,000 spending money there too," says Mr McLeay.

Every Big Wednesday ticket purchased during the two week promotion received a voucher that went into the draw for this exciting prize. The winning voucher is number 50131 and was sold via NZ Lotteries online sales channel mylotto.co.nz.
