A young Mt Druitt man confessed to still being half-asleep when he received the news he was now $200,000 richer after winning the guaranteed 1st Prize in the latest Lucky Lotteries Mega Jackpot draw.

The man won the 1st Prize of $200,000 in Lucky Lotteries Mega Jackpot draw 1137, drawn on Wednesday 2 October 2018.

Speaking to a NSW Lotteries official today to confirm the prize, the hard-working man admitted he had just woken from a nap before starting nightshift.

“Are you joking? Is this serious? Is this real? I’m sorry, I’ve just woken up from a nap before I head to work and it’s taking me a minute to process!” he confessed.

“That’s just beautiful! Thank you so much! It’s fine you have woken me up – definitely worth the wakeup call!”

“I don’t usually play Lucky Lotteries, but I had a few extra dollars in my online account after putting on my other lottery entries and I saw that it had jackpotted to $21 million so I thought I’d enter.

“I’m so glad I did now! Two hundred thousand dollars! Wow!”

When asked how he planned to spend his Lucky Lotteries windfall, the happy man revealed the first thing he would do was plan a family holiday.

“I’m not sure what I’ll do with it yet. It will help so much with everything!” he declared.

“It will definitely go towards a big holiday for a start. The family have wanted to go to New Zealand for a while, so I think it’s time to head over there.”

The winner also confessed a celebration of the life-changing news would have to wait.

“I’ve got to head to work, but hopefully we can spend a nice day out as a family tomorrow – just depends on the weather!” he laughed.

The family man, who wishes to remain anonymous, purchased his entry of four random numbers at thelott.com – Australia’s official lotteries.

The Lucky Lotteries Mega Jackpot prize is now $21.88 million for draw 1137 while the Lucky Lotteries Super Jackpot is now $500,000 for draw 10250.
