Six and a half million pesos isn’t at all bad for someone who has never won in lotteries or raffles.
And all Nicolas Dangcalan had to do to win was to reply to what some people may consider “junk mail.â€
Dangcalan, a 44-year-old family man from Cebu City, has won the super grand prize in the Reader’s Digest Sweepstakes, the biggest pot won by a Filipino since the sweepstakes was introduced in the country in 1990.
Dangcalan’s name was picked from some 2.1 million entries from Hong Kong, Singapore, Taiwan, and the Philippines in the 2008 Reader’s Digest Sweepstakes, which offered total prizes of P15 million.
As 2008’s Super Grand Winner, Dangcalan took home P6.6 million.
