Almost a week after the draw, a Randwick woman has come forward to claim her $200,000 Lucky Lotteries prize after spending the night wide awake planning what she’d do with her win.

The New South Wales player won the 1st Prize of $200,000 in Lucky Lotteries Mega Jackpot draw 1496, drawn Thursday 6 August 2020.

“Oh my gosh!” she laughed.

“Thank you so much.

“I’m so excited. This feels so good!

“I scanned the ticket last night and discovered the news. I couldn’t sleep after that.

“I had to come into the newsagency today to double check.

“I’m pinching myself! It’s unbelievable.”

When asked how she planned to enjoy her surprise windfall, the winner explained many people would be benefiting.

“I’ll be sharing it with my family and friends,” she said.

“It’s fantastic. I can’t wait to share the joy with them.

“This is just what we need right now!”

The winning entry was purchased at At The Spot Newsagency, 28 Saint Pauls Street, Randwick.

At The Spot Newsagency owner Fong Mak said she was glad her local customer had discovered the exciting news.

“It’s so nice to see this incredible prize go to a local,” she said.

“I am so happy for our winner!
