Friends band together to win

Eight friends made it big together in last Wednesday's Lexus Mega Raffle. Working in a flour mill in Abu Dhabi, they used to pool money to buy a ticket of the Lexus Mega raffle every year and DSF 2010 proved to be lucky.

"I have been struggling to make ends meet. Finally I can go back home and have a peaceful retirement," said A Koya, an Indian national from Kerala.

The Raffle prize includes a Lexus LS 460 luxury sedan and Dh100,000 in cash.
