A Jannali woman has confessed she might have to leave work early after bursting into tears over the revelation she won $100,000 in today’s Lucky Lotteries draw.

The South Sydney resident held the 1st Prize-winning entry in Lucky Lotteries Super Jackpot draw 10947, drawn Friday 21 March 2025.

“Did I win $100,000?!” the woman cried when speaking to an official from The Lott.

“Oh, thank you! Thank you!”

“That’s amazing! I can’t speak because I’m crying.

“I’m at work and I’m just in the kitchen. No one else is in here at the moment. I might have to leave work early. Oh goodness, thank you!

“You’ve derailed my day. I can’t stop crying.

“I’ve always played Lucky Lotteries and I grab a ticket into every draw, but I never thought I’d win this much.

“This just sets me up for the future!”

Her winning entry of five random numbers was purchased via The Lott app – the official home of Australia’s lotteries.

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.
