A Chatswood dad is in the running for Father of the Year after declaring he’s buying his daughter her first car after winning $200,000 in a recent Lucky Lotteries Mega Jackpot draw.
The Sydney resident won the guaranteed 1st Prize of $200,000 in Lucky Lotteries Mega Jackpot draw 1415, drawn Tuesday 6 August 2019.
Confirming his win with a NSW Lotteries official this afternoon, the man revealed he’d just checked his ticket and discovered his win.
“Thank you so much!” he laughed.
“I just went to the newsagency and checked my ticket and that’s when they told me.
“It was good! I was definitely shocked, but it’s starting to sink in now.
“It’s come at a good time.”
When asked how he planned to enjoy his prize, the Sydney man said he’d need some time to think but did have a few ideas.
“I don’t really know how I will use my prize. I’ll have to think about it first properly,” he shared.
“I will probably pay a few bills and I’ll buy myself something fun . I will look at getting my daughter her first car as well.
“I am going to take a few days off work next week and just relax a bit.
“I will celebrate with the boys this weekend and shout them a few drinks too.”
The thrilled winner, who wishes to remain anonymous, purchased his entry at Quay Newsagency, Shop W8a Alfred Street, 2 Circular Quay, Sydney.
Quay Newsagency Owner Sang Soon Kim said he was thrilled to have made one of his customers $200,000 richer.

“We are thrilled for our customer and wish him all the best with his prize.
