A Forster resident or visitor is poised to receive a joyous $100,000 boost just in time for Christmas, though they may not yet know it.
The mystery ticketholder held the 1st Prize winning entry in Lucky Lotteries Super Jackpot draw 10906, drawn Monday 23 December 2024. They can look forward to a total prize of $100,000.
If the winner had been part of The Lott Members Club and registered their ticket to a player card or online account, they would have already been alerted to their good fortune. Instead, officials from The Lott are eagerly waiting for the ticketholder to check their ticket and come forward.
The winning entry was purchased at Tulls Newsagency, 1/55 Wharf Street, Forster.
The Lott spokesperson Eliza Wregg said she hoped the region’s latest 1st Prize winner checked their ticket and came forward to start the prize claim process.
“Our mystery winner is likely oblivious to the fact they’ve scored a life-enhancing win just in time for Christmas and the New Year!” she said.
“We’re encouraging anyone who purchased a Lucky Lotteries Super Jackpot ticket from Tulls Newsagency to check their ticket today!
“Just imagine how exhilarating it would be to discover you won $100,000 ahead of Christmas Day.
“Make sure you check your tickets, and if you discover you are holding the winning ticket, contact The Lott on 131 868 as soon as possible to begin the exciting prize claim process.”
Tulls Newsagency managers Vanessa and Stuart shared they were over the moon to hear they’d sold a 1st Prize winning entry this festive season.
“It’s so exciting to hear we’ve sold a winning ticket so close to Christmas!” Vanessa said.
“We’re urging all our customers to check their tickets today because you may just receive an early Christmas surprise.
“The last time we sold a winning entry was November 2022, when we sold a winning Powerball ticket worth $50 million.
“We hope our mystery winner comes forward soon and has a very Merry Christmas.”
The Lucky Lotteries Mega Jackpot prize is now $3.88 million for draw 1694, while the Lucky Lotteries Super Jackpot prize is now $8.69 million for draw 10907.

Lucky Lotteries Super Jackpot and Lucky Lotteries Mega Jackpot are raffle-style games, which means there is a set number of tickets in each draw. As each ticket number is unique there is no sharing of prizes.
Each game has two draws – one that determines the winning numbers and one that determines the jackpot number. If the jackpot number matches one of the winning numbers, then the Jackpot Prize is won. If the jackpot number does not match one of the winning numbers, the Jackpot Prize will climb for the next draw.
Tickets can be purchased at any licenced lottery outlet, online from thelott.com or via The Lott mobile app.
