A Goulburn man has admitted he hasn’t stopped smiling since discovering he scored $100,000 in a recent Lucky Lotteries Super Jackpot draw.

The New South Wales player held the 1st Prize winning entry in Lucky Lotteries Super Jackpot draw 10809, drawn 13 November 2023. He also won two consolation prizes, bolstering his total win to $102,000.

As the winning entry was unregistered, officials from The Lott had no way to contact the winner to break the exciting news and had been eagerly waiting for the ticketholder to come forward to claim their prize.

“You beauty!” the happy winner exclaimed when his prize was confirmed.

“I was on my way to the pub and called into the newsagent to check this ticket.

“And then it went off like I’d got a prize and it’s been all good news from there.

“I’ve won plenty of free tickets and whatnot – $10, $20 and one time I won $50! But nothing like this.

“I haven’t been able to wipe the smile off my face – you couldn’t do that with a cricket bat.

“I’m going to buy myself a house and build an investment for retirement.”

Newsextra Goulburn owner Peter Watt said he and the team couldn’t be happier to hear his outlet had sold another prize-winning ticket.

“Wonderful! It was just two months ago that we sold an Instant Scratch-Its ticket with a top prize of $150,000!” he said.

“We’re so pleased our latest big winner has been found.

“We’ve decorated the store with balloons and posters and of course, we’ve been telling all our customers to check their tickets.

“Congratulations to the fortunate winner. We hope it makes an amazing difference to your life!”
