The Melburnians won the guaranteed 1st Prize of $200,000 in Lucky Lotteries Mega Jackpot draw 1636, drawn Monday 11 December 2023.
The winning man shared he was on the verge of having a ‘heart attack’ after he learned that their bank account was about to receive a wondrous boost.
“Hold up, hold up! I’ve won $200,000?” he questioned.
“I might have a heart attack! I’ve gone pale!
“I’m speechless. What a shock!
“Honestly, I don’t play Lucky Lotteries often. I was saying to my wife the other day that I might give it a go. I didn’t expect this to happen.
“We just welcomed the arrival of our first borns. Twin babies – two girls. We were talking about how we need to buy a house, and we started to look at potential homes.
“This will boost our borrowing capacity by far!
“I don’t know what to say.”
Their winning entry of 10 random numbers was purchased online at thelott.com – the official home of Australia’s lotteries.
