A woman in Italy is being declared the “luckiest person alive” after she recovered a
lost lottery ticket worth the equivalent of 18 million rand.

She had initially thrown away her ticket at a shop after thinking it was worthless. When she got home, her family told her that her numbers that she always plays were read out. After rushing back to the shop, they discovered that the bin she threw it in had already been emptied which sparked a 2 day search at a rubbish site with waste workers which eventually resulted in it being found.

How far would you go to find a lotto ticket? What is the most valuable thing you have ever lost?
