A Central Coast man has confessed to feeling “absolutely flabbergasted” after discovering the news he is now $200,000 richer from winning 1st Prize in today’s Lucky Lotteries Mega Jackpot draw.
The thrilled winner won the guaranteed 1st Prize of $200,000 in Lucky Lotteries Mega Jackpot draw 1382, drawn Wednesday 10 July 2019.
As well as winning the coveted 1st Prize, the happy man also scored a consolation prize of $1,000, bolstering his total win to $201,000.
When a NSW Lotteries official broke the life-changing news to the winner this afternoon, he couldn’t contain his glee.
“That is unreal! Can I swear? I can’t swear can I? I won’t swear but I want to!” he laughed.
“That is absolutely amazing! You don’t know how brilliant this is!
“Unbelievable! Wow! What can I say? Thank you so much!
“I’m absolutely flabbergasted. I don’t know what to say!”
When asked how he planned to enjoy his Lucky Lotteries windfall, the overwhelmed winner revealed it had come at the perfect time.
“This is beautiful timing!” he revealed.
“It will go a long way towards paying off some bills and the mortgage, which means no more stress for me and my wife!”
The regular player confessed he had only recently started playing Lucky Lotteries.
“I have always played other lottery games but hadn’t played much Lucky Lotteries,” he explained.
“I saw the jackpot was getting up there and last week I thought ‘I’d better put an entry in’.
“So after today’s news I think I’ll definitely be playing more often!”
The winner also revealed he could not wait to share the exciting news with his beloved family.
“I don’t know how I am going to wait until my wife gets home from work to tell her!’ he said.
“I don’t want to call her and give her a shock. It might be too much!
“I still need to let it sink in a bit too.
“We’ll definitely be going out for dinner tonight to celebrate!”
