No, you can only play your number once per week. You can only play one toonie per number, per week, at any one of the treasure chest locations. If you put more than one toonie in for your number you still only have one chance to win each week. Do not put extra toonies in the box to prepay unless they are in an envelope or baggie, all together and labeled with your number. Please prepay with bills – $10 for 5 weeks, $20 for 10 weeks or $50 for 25 weeks. Any extra toonies with the same numbers are forfeited and will be deposited as a $2 donation. If you wish to have more chances to win, complete an additional registration card for any additional toonies/numbers you want to play. You can can register and play more than one number!

Boxes are picked up at store opening every Tuesday morning.

The draw takes place every Wednesday morning before 11am, and is streamed live on our Facebook page.

Players must play before location closing on Monday evenings – Toonies played after that time may not be in the current week’s draw.

No, the draw is made from just the registered numbers, including those that were registered during the week up until the pick-up time. When registration tickets are collected from the treasure chests, the information from the tickets will be added to the computer database. Your registration ticket number will then be written on a wooden token and put into the locked drum on the next draw date. It is a permanent number! The ticket number will remain in the drum indefinitely. The weekly winning number will be drawn from this drum not from the toonies.

The number is yours until you cancel it. If you wish to withdraw your number, inform the Treasure Chest Toonie Draw by email at treasurechesttooniedraw@nlllc.ca.

Yes, but you must first complete additional Registration Forms for each new number.

No. As the draw is from the registered numbers, playing the same number on more than one toonie does not give you extra chances.
Please play more than one number, not the same number multiple times if you want extra chances to win.

Not necessarily. If a registered number is drawn and that number was not played that week, the prize rolls over to the next week. On the final draw of each lottery license year only there will be no roll over and numbers will be drawn until a winner is found.
