A Toowoomba farmer says after years of drought and financial stress the pressure is finally off thanks to her unexpected $200,000 Lucky Lotteries windfall.

The Queensland player won the guaranteed 1st Prize of $200,000 in Lucky Lotteries Mega Jackpot draw 1353, drawn Monday 17 June 2019.

Sharing her excitement with a Golden Casket official this morning, the woman revealed she’d just discovered the news.

“I have never won anything in my life!” she cried with joy.

“Woohoo!

“I can’t believe it! Thank you so much!

“I saw an email notifying me that I had a win and then I checked my ticket online.

“I started crying when I saw I had won $200,000! It’s really taking a bit to sink in.

“It’s a bit of a shock but it’s also just so fantastic to win!”

The winner revealed the prize had come at the perfect time, after years of doing it tough.

“We’ve been through such a horrible drought and this really takes the pressure off!” she exclaimed.

“I’ve got a few things that I’d really love to do out here on the farm.

“And I’d like to share the prize with my family as well and put the rest away!”

The Toowoomba farmer’s Lucky Lotteries win comes just days after a Toowoomba grandfather won $200,000 in Friday’s Lucky Lucky Lotteries Mega Jackpot draw.

The happy woman, who wishes to remain anonymous, purchased her winning entry at newsXpress on West, Shop 5, Westridge Shopping Centre, 300 West Street, Toowoomba.

The Lucky Lotteries Mega Jackpot prize is now $74.44 million for draw 1357 while the Lucky Lotteries Super Jackpot is now $1.80 million for draw 10295.
