Friendly Grocer Introduces Lotto

Friendly Grocer in Jubilee Pocket is thrilled to announce the launch of the Tatts Lotto at their store, it's been in the works for months and now it's here.

Owner Nathan Parker said last week was the first week of the lotto at the store, and thinks this weeks $20 million will attract more players.

They offer all of the Lott games including scratchies, Set for Life, Oz Lotto, Powerball, X lotto, and all the others. The Friendly Grocer contains a total of eight games.

Obtaining the rights for the Tatts Lotto has been a long process.

"It took us a good four to six months and I went up to Townsville for a week of training," said Nathan.

"I had a registered training at an outlet up there, which was great experience. It was nice to see a busy outlet up there.

"There's a lot more to it than what it seems, it isn't just scan the ticket and sell.

"Having the Lotto here is great and it is a dream for us to make somebody a millioanire, or make multiple."

The Tatts Lotto is not the only new thing at Friendly Grocer, they also have your Christmas sorted.

Nathan said they are currently stocking decorations, table clothes, tinsel, baubles and they are even open on Christmas Day.

In more news they have also started new hot deli meals with six to seven meals each day ranging from curry to meatballs, and pies and sausage rolls.

With hot meals, Christmas decor, Tatts Lotto, and a wide arrange of produce and local products Friendly Grocer in Jubilee Pocket is becoming a one stop shop.
