A Peregian Beach woman has erupted into bursts of laughter upon discovering she’d scored $200,000 in yesterday’s Lucky Lotteries draw.
The Sunshine Coast resident held the 1st Prize winning entry in Lucky Lotteries Mega Jackpot draw 1704, drawn Wednesday 11 June 2025. She looks forward to a tidy $200,000.
The cheery winner confessed she had no idea there was a Lucky Lotteries draw yesterday and was completely blindsided by the winning news.
“It’s such wonderful news,” she laughed when an official from The Lott revealed her prize.
“I didn’t even know there was a Lucky Lotteries draw today.
“It was very unexpected news, and I haven’t stopped laughing since.
“When I first saw I had a missed email from The Lott, I thought it was a scam.
“It wasn’t until I logged into my online account and checked my ticket that I saw the win.
“I yelled out to my husband and told him to sit down, I said, ‘You have to take a look at this!’.
“We both shed a few tears.”
With a $200,000 boost heading her way, the gleeful woman shared she would start by celebrating her newfound treasure in style.
“I think I might have to have a little bubble. It would be rude not to celebrate,” she said.
“It’s going to help us so much. It will go a long way towards our mortgage.”
Her winning entry of four consecutive numbers was purchased on The Lott website – the official home of Australia’s lotteries.
The Lucky Lotteries Mega Jackpot prize is now $6.52 million for draw 1705, while the Lucky Lotteries Super Jackpot prize is now $20.78 million for draw 11001.
In 2024, 147 Lucky Lotteries 1st Prize and Jackpot winning entries across Australia won more than $52.2 million.
Lucky Lotteries Super Jackpot and Lucky Lotteries Mega Jackpot are raffle-style games, which means there is a set number of tickets in each draw. As each ticket number is unique there is no sharing of prizes.
Each game has two draws – one that determines the winning numbers and one that determines the jackpot number. If the jackpot number matches one of the winning numbers, then the Jackpot Prize is won. If the jackpot number does not match one of the winning numbers, the Jackpot Prize will climb for the next draw.
Tickets can be purchased at any licenced lottery outlet, online from thelott.com or via The Lott mobile app.
The official home of Australia’s lotteries, The Lott operates and markets Australia’s leading lottery games customers know and love creating everyday winners, winning every day.
