A woman in her 30s from Liverpool jumped for joy this morning after discovering she was suddenly $200,000 richer after winning 1st Prize in yesterday’s Lucky Lotteries Mega Jackpot draw.

The New South Wales woman won the guaranteed 1st Prize of $200,000 in Lucky Lotteries Mega Jackpot draw 1340, drawn Thursday 6 June 2019.

Speaking with a NSW Lotteries official this morning, the young woman admitted she didn’t know whether to laugh or cry upon discovering the life-changing news.

“Oh my god! I can’t believe it! I was jumping up and down and crying when I saw online that I had won,” she exclaimed.

“I couldn’t stop laughing and crying at the same time. I can’t describe the feeling to you. It’s like nothing I’ve ever experienced. I couldn’t believe it.

“I’ve been playing every draw for about a year. I even bought a ticket for the next one. I’ll definitely keep playing.

“I’m so happy with $200,000 but with $70 million on offer I’ll definitely keep playing.

“I love playing Lucky Lotteries because it is so easy to play and there are lots of prizes.

“I’m happy to win anything! I’ve won a few small prizes in the past but nothing like this. It’s amazing and just unbelievable!”

When asked how she planned to enjoy her Lucky Lotteries windfall, the overwhelmed woman confessed she was still in too much shock to think straight.

“I haven’t really had a chance to think that far ahead yet!” she admitted.

“I’ve still got too many mixed emotions about it. Is it happening? Is it real? I just can’t think about it yet.

“It’s just unbelievable! I always read of other people winning and I can’t believe its me.

“I’m just so happy. Winning the money is great but it’s actually just pretty special to be that one person who has won.”

However, the winner did confess there would be some celebrations ahead now the news had officially been confirmed.

“I haven’t told anyone yet because I wanted to make sure it was real and I’ve been trying to stay calm.

“I can’t wait to tell my family. I’ll definitely celebrate with my close family tonight.”

The happy woman, who wishes to remain anonymous, purchased her entry of two random numbers online at thelott.com.

The Lucky Lotteries Mega Jackpot prize is now $70.84 million for draw 1342 while the Lucky Lotteries Super Jackpot is now $1.54 million for draw 10293.

For your chance to make today your ‘Lucky’ day, why not get your paws on a Lucky Lotteries ticket at your local NSW Lotteries outlet or online via thelott.com.

About Lucky Lotteries

Lucky Lotteries has two products: the Lucky Lotteries Super Jackpot and the Lucky Lotteries Mega Jackpot.

Both Lucky Lotteries Super Jackpot and Lucky Lotteries Mega Jackpot have thousands of guaranteed prizes in every draw, from free tickets through to a 1st Prize of $100,000 and $200,000 respectively.

In addition to the guaranteed prizes in every draw, Lucky Lotteries is also a jackpotting game. The jackpot in the Lucky Lotteries game is won when the selected jackpot ticket number has already won a cash prize in that same draw. If the selected jackpot ticket hasn’t already won a cash prize in that draw, then the top prize jackpots.

Unlike lotto-style games where the top prize is often shared between winners, Lucky Lotteries is a draw lottery where the jackpot winner takes the lot. This means the jackpot prize can only be won by a unique Lucky Lotteries ticket number.

The sign of Australia’s Official Lotteries, the Lott operates and markets Australia’s leading lottery games customers know and love creating everyday winners, winning every day.

Last calendar year, 74 million winners took home a total of $2.7 billion in prize money from their favourite games which include Saturday Lotto, Monday and Wednesday Lotto, Powerball, Oz Lotto, Set for Life, Lucky Lotteries, Keno and Instant Scratch-Its.
