A Kempsey mother was left thanking the universe and dancing her way into the weekend after her Instant Scratch-Its ticket landed her a $25,000 top prize win.
The $2 Feline Rich Instant Scratch-Its ticket was purchased at Chaddies Newsagent & Store, Shop 2, 1-3 Rudder Street, Kempsey.
The New South Wales resident relayed how her winning discovery came about when an official from The Lott reached out to her.
“I went to the newsagency to check a different ticket I had. It’d won $10 so I just bought a couple more to do later,” she said.
“They were sitting in my bag all day.
“When I finally scratched the ticket, I was in disbelief. I called my children in and said ‘Am I seeing this right?!
“They started screaming and we all did a big happy dance around the house!
“I’ve had a lot of setbacks these past few months, but I’ve been persevering and now I’ve finally been rewarded for staying strong.
“To me, it’s a sign from the universe telling me I’m supported and on the right path.
“I’m getting goosebumps just talking about it!
“I’m still in shock.
“It’s just amazing. Now I can go on a holiday!
