A Warrnambool family woman has declared she simply can’t process the news she is now a multi-millionaire after winning division one in TattsLotto draw 3855 drawn Saturday 30 June 2018.

The happy winner held one of two division one winning entries nationally from the draw – one each from Victoria and New South Wales. Each entry takes home a division one prize of $2,070,113.85.

As well as winning division one the thrilled winner also won division three six times bolstering her total prize to $2,076,671.85.

When speaking with a Tatts official this morning to confirm her win, the winner couldn’t hide her disbelief.

“Are you serious? Or are you just having me on?” the winner asked.

“I can’t believe it! I feel like you’re just pulling my leg!

“I can’t believe this is happening! How much was it again? I don’t care! It’s over two million!

“I can’t wait to call my husband and tell him. He won’t believe it either.

“I just can’t process this! It’s a dream! It’s just going to change my whole life.”

When asked how she planned to spend her TattsLotto windfall, the winner revealed her beloved family were at the top of her Lotto List.

“I’m going to be able to help my family out. My daughter and son will be able to pay off their houses.

“I’m also going to help my sister pay off her house too!

“I think I’ll take them all out somewhere nice to celebrate!”

When asked how the over-joyed winner chose her marked numbers, she revealed her cherished family inspired her winning numbers.

“Those numbers are my wedding anniversary and my family’s birthdays. I’ve had that ticket for over 30 years! I’ve had that ticket a long time!

“I play it every week without fail! Every week.”

The thrilled winner revealed she had only joked minutes earlier about winning division one.

“When I saw that I had a missed call, I said to my daughter ‘I should have answered that, it might have been TattsLotto calling to tell me I have won’,” she laughed.

“I never dreamed it could be true.”

The regular player, who wishes to remain anonymous, purchased her System 7 marked entry at Reinheimers Newsagency and Lotto, 145 Koroit St, Warrnambool.

It is the second division one win Reinheimers Newsagency and Lotto has sold this year, with a local man winning $986,000 in TattsLotto in March.

Michelle Sandland, team member of Reinheimers Newsagency and Lotto, said she was thrilled the outlet had sold another division one winning entry so soon.

“It’s just fantastic! It had been awhile since we sold one and now it’s two in a row in just three months!

“It doesn’t matter who wins but it’s so fantastic it is a local to the area. It’s just great for the town!

“Congratulations to our winner! We wish them all the best with their prize!”
