A âflabbergastedâ Coomera retiree plans to celebrate his sweet division one win in the weekendâs Saturday Gold Lotto draw by treating himself to a slice of cake this morning.
The Gold Coast player held one of the eight division one winning entries across the country in Saturday Gold Lotto draw 4085 on Saturday 12 September 2020. Each entry won a division one prize of $621,499.92.
The retiree was oblivious to his good fortune until an official from the Lott contacted him this morning.
âIâm amazed! Iâm absolutely flabbergasted!â he exclaimed when his win was revealed.
âI never expected to win anything more than $20. When I head out to get a coffee this morning, Iâm going to have some cake as well!
âThis is absolutely brilliant. Youâve made my day!â
Moments after discovering he was a division one winner, the Gold Coast resident quickly began contemplating how heâd enjoy his prize.
âIâm not in shock, but I probably will be,â he declared.
âI wonât sleep tonight. Iâll be planning what to do. This lets me do things I wouldnât normally be able to do.
âIâll help my family out, and Iâm going to spoil myself and get a new car.
âWhen we can travel around Australia, Iâll go on a big trip.â
The winning man purchased his 12-game QuickPick online at thelott.com â Australiaâs official lotteries.
