A Narrabundah woman instantly burst into tears yesterday after the revelation she had scored $100,000 in a recent Lucky Lotteries Super Jackpot draw.
The Canberra resident scored the guaranteed 1st Prize of $100,000 in Lucky Lotteries Super Jackpot draw 10848.
The winning woman was completely unaware of her lottery loot until an official from The Lott called to reveal the wonderful news.
“Holy S***! Oh my god!” she cried.
“Excuse my French! You have no idea how much this means to me.
“I can’t believe it. Oh my god. Thank you so much.
“Between caring for my father and other things, I have a lot going on in my life. This is life-changing for me.
“I’m renting but I’ve always wanted to own a home. I think I’ll invest what I can and work towards owning a house one day.
“I also haven’t been on a holiday in probably eight years! I’d love to do an overseas trip.
“You’ve made my day.”
Her winning entry of two random numbers was purchased via The Lott app – the official home of Australia’s lotteries.
The Lucky Lotteries Mega Jackpot prize is now $17.56 million for draw 1666, while the Lucky Lotteries Super Jackpot prize is now $1.15 million for draw 10849.
In 2023, 117 Lucky Lotteries 1st Prize and Jackpot winning entries across Australia won more than $20.6 million.
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.
