A Brisbane grandmother was utterly overwhelmed when a Golden Casket official confirmed she was $100,000 richer from winning 1st Prize in Lucky Lotteries Super Jackpot.
The emotional winner won the guaranteed 1st Prize in Lucky Lotteries Super Jackpot draw 10248, drawn Monday 24 September 2018.
While speaking with a Golden Casket official to confirm the life-changing news, the winner explained it had come at a good time.
“Thank you so much. You do not know how much this means to me,” she explained.
“It means I will have security.
“It’s an answer to my prayers.
“It’s so wonderful. Thank you so much.”
The winner, who wishes to remain anonymous, purchased her winning entry of four random numbers online at theLott.com – Australia’s official lotteries.
The winner has already decided how she will spend her windfall, but has chosen to keep the details private.
The Lucky Lotteries Mega Jackpot prize is now $20.92 million for draw 1134 while the Lucky Lotteries Super Jackpot is now $2.32 million for draw 10249.
It is the first time since the game’s introduction to Queensland customers that the jackpot prize for Lucky Lotteries Mega Jackpot has cracked $20 million.
Golden Casket spokesperson Bronnie Spencer said time is of the essence when it comes to buying tickets.
“Unlike other lottery games, there is only a limited number of tickets available in each Lucky Lotteries Mega Jackpot draw, which means players need to get in quick if they want a chance to win over $20 million,” she said.
“While every draw guarantees more than 10,000 winners, it’s been a while since someone has landed the jackpot prize.
“Just like our winner, imagine how your future could change for the better with a Lucky Lotteries win!”
Ms Spencer explained the last time someone won the entire jackpot prize in a Lucky Lotteries Mega Jackpot draw was in January 2017 when a young woman from Sydney took home $7.48 million.
“While the last jackpot prize landed in New South Wales, Queenslanders have not missed out,” she said.
“Queensland players have secured more than $1.9 million in Lucky Lotteries prize money this calendar year alone.”
Golden Casket customers can purchase a single ticket number into the Lucky Lotteries Super Jackpot for $2.20 and the Lucky Lotteries Mega Jackpot for $5.50. For your chance to make today your ‘Lucky’ day, why not get your paws on a Lucky Lotteries ticket at your local Golden Casket outlet or online.
