ONE in four Tasmanian adults will be hoping they hold the lucky ticket that will make them Australia's biggest ever lottery winner tonight.
Tatts expects 100,000 Tasmanians will have purchased tickets for tonight's $70 million Oz Lotto jackpot by the time entries close.
Kate Howard, 21, of Rosny, bought a ticket for the first time.
"My mum mentioned something about the $70 million so I thought I'd buy one," she said.
A local supermarket syndicate recently bought their winning ticket worth $1.37 million from Eastlands Lotto.
"We sell more Lotto tickets here than anywhere in Tasmania," owner Russell Tisdale said.
Derwent Park Newsagency co-owner Glenn Connane said tickets for tonight's draw had been flying out the door.
"We're probably selling 300 a day, which is three times normal at least," he said.
He was expecting a final rush this evening as punters left their run to the last minute.
"We'll still be going at one minute to six," he said.
The last Oz Lotto win for Tasmania was in 2010 when an entry purchased in Penguin won $2.5 million.
Tatts Lotteries spokeswoman Zoe Knobel encouraged people to register their entry to a Tatts Card so they could be easily contacted if they won.
The draw will be broadcast about 8.40pm, or go to www.tatts.com
