“Oh my god! Oh my god!” the winning woman cried.
“I’ve never won anything in my entire life.
“Honestly darling, I’m shaking over here.

“I’ve been playing Lucky Lotteries since I was 21. I can’t believe I’ve won the big prize.
“It’s been a tough couple of years. Things have just seemed to go wrong.
“I tell you what, this has just made my day.
“I’m going to make a cuppa and treat myself to a nice vanilla slice.”
With $100,000 soon to boost her bank account, the elated woman shared she could finally think about booking her first holiday in decades.
“Oh, I haven’t had a holiday in decades. I think I’ll finally start thinking of booking something,” she said.
“I think I really deserve a relaxing holiday after the past couple of years.”

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.
