A Brighton East player has a weekend of celebrating ahead 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 1253, drawn Wednesday 20 March 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 Brighton East 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 weekend have changed after discovering the life-changing news.

“Who knows if they will celebrate with a fancy dinner, low-key BBQ with friends and family or if they will treat themselves to a day at the spa.

“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 10 consecutive number at North Road Lotto and Post, 609 Hawthorn Road, Brighton

Owner of North Road Lotto and Post Charlie Jiang said he was thrilled his outlet had sold its first major prize since he took ownership in 2012.

“We are so excited to have sold a major prize and that one of our customer's dreams have come true!” he exclaimed.

“We’ve been waiting six years for this to happen so we are so happy for our winner!

“There are posters all up in store and we’ve been telling all of our customers we’ve sold a major prize!

“Congratulations to our winner, we wish them all the best!”
