Mrs. R, the first million-dollar winner in 2020, bought her lucky ticket for the first time from a Dubai Duty Free Finest Surprise counter in Dubai International Airport when she travelled to Bahrain in December for a one-day trip to attend a baby shower. A resident of Dubai for 30 years, Mrs. R who works for a holding company, has been buying tickets online for the past 3 months, said: ‘I am very happy that I have won, this only shows that the Dubai Duty Free promotion is a credible draw.
