Dear New Zealand Lotteries Commission,

I am enquiring about the instore games "Millionaire Riches" game number "779" and "Mega Million" game number "830" which are a$15 tickets. My enquiry is how many games have been sold to date (11.03.26) and also how many games have been sold once you reply to this request. Also is there an alternative way to see this information besides making a request here?

Yours faithfully,

Brandon Lancastle
