A Balaclava player has had a kick start to the week after discovering they are now $200,000 richer thanks to a recent Lucky Lotteries Mega Jackpot draw.
The south-eastern Melbourne shopper won the guaranteed 1st Prize in Lucky Lotteries Mega Jackpot draw 1388, drawn Monday 15 July 2019.
However, how the 1st Prize winner plans to spend their unexpected windfall will forever be a mystery as they have chosen to remain completely anonymous and celebrate in private.
Tatts spokesperson Bronwyn Spencer said while we might never know how the Balaclava player planned to enjoy their prize, we were sure the win brought a smile to their face.
“What an incredible surprise to discover you’re suddenly $200,000 richer!” she exclaimed.
“No doubt our winner’s plans for the week have changed after discovering the life-changing news.
“Other Lucky Lotteries winners tell us that their 1st Prize gives them the freedom to splurge and they often celebrate with their nearest and dearest by doing something they enjoy including a delicious steak dinner with mates, a day shopping with the girls or even going out for fish and chips with their family.
“However our winner chooses to celebrate and enjoy their windfall we are sure they’ll enjoy every minute of it!”
The anonymous winner purchased their winning entry of 5 random numbers at Ramsay Pharmacy Balaclava, 304-306 Carlisle Street, Balaclava.
Ramsay Pharmacy Balaclava manager Sol Leski said he was thrilled the outlet had sold its first Lucky Lotteries 1st Prize.
“We’ve had many customers in the store who have been playing Lucky Lotteries since the jackpot started climbing,” he explained.
“So my first thought when we saw that we had won was ‘I hope it is one of our regular players!’.
“We’ve recently been fortunate to sell two winning shares in a central syndicate earlier this year and we’ve sold 29 division one winning entries over the past 40 years.
“We spend our time selling dreams and we really hope this win makes some of the winner’s dreams come true!
“We look forward to a couple of days ahead of celebrations with our staff and customers!”
The Lucky Lotteries Mega Jackpot prize is now $82.12 million for draw 1389 while the Lucky Lotteries Super Jackpot is now $2.45 million for draw 10300.
