The winner is a 47-year-old housewife from Bulacan. It was said that she plans “to invest her winnings in business, buy a new home, and deposit the rest into her two children’s savings accounts.”
The PCSO Lotto Winner shared that her winning number, 8-34-01-11-28-04, is taken from her family’s birthdates while she chose the number ‘28’ because she said it represents a car and the number ‘34’ a house.
