In an adrenaline-filled morning, a Bargo couple has discovered they'd won $100,000 in today’s Lucky Lotteries draw, sending their hearts into overdrive and leaving their hands shaking.
The Macarthur region residents held the 1st Prize winning entry in Lucky Lotteries Super Jackpot draw 10893, drawn Monday 18 November 2024 and look forward to a total prize of $100,000.
The cheery duo, completely oblivious to their win, wasted no time picking up the winning phone call from lottery officials at The Lott.
“Oh, that’s absolutely f***ing amazing!” the winning husband cheered when officials revealed their win.
“I’m shaking like crazy right now.
“I’ve just yelled out to my wife with the news, and she’s nearly on the floor crying.
“I think we need to sit down to process the news.
“I’ve been a regular Lucky Lotteries player for years now. I always choose random numbers and leave the power with the universe.
“This is just insane.
“We have so much adrenaline rushing through our bodies.”
With $100,000 soon to grace their bank account, the stunned duo shared that the prize couldn’t have come at a better time.
“It’s going to be a great Christmas!” the winning man shared.
“I’ve been having issues with my car for the last couple of months.
“We also have lots of housework that needs to be done.
“It’s really come at a great time.”

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.
