⚡ It's Powerball day.
Tonight's draw has a $100 million Division 1 jackpot, and it's been a busy one at the counter.

If you'd like to be part of a bigger entry without organising it yourself, our in-store syndicates are worth a look. They're ready-made shares in larger entries, so you pick the share size that suits your budget and the rest is sorted.

Or if you'd rather keep it simple, grab a QuickPick and let the numbers be chosen at random for you. Either way, the team can run you through what's available today.

Are you going solo with a QuickPick tonight, or going in on an in-store syndicate?

🎟️ Quick question from behind the counter... do you have "your" numbers?

Ask any of us here and you'll get a different answer. Some go with birthdays, some swear by an old footy jersey number, and someone always picks whatever feels right on the day.

Oz Lotto is drawn tonight, Tuesday 13 October, with a $30 million Division 1 jackpot on offer. If you want to play your favourites, choose seven numbers from 1 to 47, mark them on an entry form and bring it up to the counter. Forms are in-store, and we're always happy to help if it's your first time filling one out.

So, go on, which seven numbers would you pick? 👇

👥 Ever thought about playing Powerball as part of a group?
Powerball has a $60 million jackpot this Thursday 8 October, and big jackpot weeks are usually when we get the most questions about in-store syndicates.

An in-store syndicate is a ready-made group entry that we put together here in the store. It's one larger entry split into shares, so instead of buying the whole thing, you buy a share of it. If the entry picks up a prize, it's divided between everyone in the syndicate based on how many shares they hold.

The nice thing is there's nothing for you to organise. No chasing friends for money or keeping track of who's paid, it's all set up and ready to go. Just come in, have a look at the in-store syndicates we've got available, and choose a share size that suits your budget. Our team is always happy to explain how each one works.

Would you rather play on your own, or as part of an in-store syndicate?

🎯 Ever wondered how a System entry actually works?
Oz Lotto has a $20 million jackpot this Tuesday 6 October, so it feels like a good week to explain one of the ways to play that people often ask us about at the counter.

With a standard Oz Lotto game, you choose 7 numbers. With a System entry, you choose more than 7, and your entry covers every possible combination of 7 from the numbers you've picked. So a System 8 means you choose 8 numbers, which works out to 8 games. A System 9 covers 36 games, all built from your 9 numbers.

Because your numbers are spread across all those games, the same drawn numbers can match in more than one of them. That means a single System entry can collect prizes across several games or divisions at once. The flip side is that more games means a higher entry price, so have a chat with our team and we'll help you find a System size that suits your budget.

Have you ever played a System entry, or do you stick with 7 numbers?

🎃 Halloween's on its way, and the Heelers have already sorted their costumes.

The latest issue of Bluey Magazine has landed and it's a spooky one. The friendly kind of spooky, don't worry. There's a trick or treat game, a page of spooky stickers, and some fruit bat puzzles to keep little hands busy on a rainy arvo.

If you've got a young artist at home, there's a learn to draw section full of scary stuff, plus a few magic tricks to try. I have a feeling that magic show might get performed for the whole family after dinner, whether you asked for it or not.

It's a good one to have on hand in the lead up to Halloween, or tucked away for a quiet afternoon. Pop in and grab a copy next time you're passing.

What's the costume plan at your place this year? 👻
