A Casey woman has confessed she couldn’t help but pinch herself this morning after being thrown into a surreal state of dreamy disbelief when she discovered her $2.5 million win in the weekend’s Saturday Lotto draw.
The Canberra resident held one of the eight division one winning entries nationally in Saturday Lotto draw 4559, drawn Saturday 29 March 2025. Each division one winning entry pocketed $2.5 million.
“Thank you so much. It was a huge surprise to wake up to,” she said while speaking to an official from The Lott.
“I thought I was dreaming at first. I genuinely had to pinch myself.
“I’ve had my coffee now, so it’s sunk in a bit more, but I’m still trying to wrap my head around it.
“I’ve never had something like this. Gosh, I can’t believe I can say I’m a millionaire.
“I completely forgot that I had even entered. I play now and then when there’s a big draw on, so I don’t always check right away.
“I just got the smallest entry you could choose for a QuickPick, which was six games. I’m completely blown away.”
With $2.5 million heading her way, the newly made multi-millionaire shared she’d be able to secure her very own home and go on a coastal getaway.
“I’ll be able to buy a house!” she said.
“I’d love to go on a holiday to the coast too.”
Her winning 6-game QuickPick entry was purchased on The Lott website – the official home of Australia’s lotteries.
The winning numbers in Saturday Lotto draw 4559 on 29 March 2025 were 36, 3, 17, 1, 21 and 41, while the supplementary numbers were 24 and 30.
Across Australia, there were eight division one winning entries in Saturday Lotto draw 4559 – two each in Queensland, New South Wales and Western Australia, and one each in Victoria and the ACT.
