A Mt Annan mother was completely “caught off guard” this morning by the unexpected news she won $100,000 in the latest Lucky Lotteries Super Jackpot draw.

The New South Wales winner scored the guaranteed 1st Prize in Lucky Lotteries Super Jackpot draw 10470, drawn Monday 14 June, and takes home a prize of $100,000.

Straight after the draw an official from The Lott called the jubilant winner, who admitted the news came as a complete surprise.

“Holy crap! Oh my god! Oh my god!” she happily squealed.

“I had absolutely no idea. I just opened The Lott app and saw what I had won!

“My husband is listening in, and he is so confused! I can’t wait to share the news with my family.

“I’m honestly a bit confused myself. I need the news to sink in.

“This has made my year! Thank you so much.

“This is life changing. It’s so exciting.

“I’ve actually been buying an entry every week, so I can’t believe a big win has finally come my way!”

When asked how she planned to enjoy her windfall, the hard-working mother said she had one thing in mind.

“This is going straight to paying off the house,” she revealed.

“My husband and I have been working hard to pay the house off.

“We also had to delay a holiday last year due to COVID-19. It will be nice to go on a long-awaited holiday.

“We also might go out for dinner tonight as a family to celebrate.”

The winner, who wishes to remain anonymous, purchased her winning entry of two random numbers online at thelott.com – Australia’s official lotteries.

If the jackpot number does not match one of the winning numbers, the Jackpot Prize will climb for the next draw.
