A Rosebud couple are ready to traverse the sun-kissed landscapes of Australia after winning an unforgettable $1.6 million prize in the weekend’s TattsLotto draw.
The Mornington Peninsula residents held one of the six division one winning entries in TattsLotto draw 4415, drawn Saturday 11 November 2023 and took home a total prize of $1,666,666.67.
So far in 2023, there have been 21 division one winning entries in the southeast Melbourne region that have collectively taken home more than $23.79 million in prize money.
The winning husband was engaged in his typical morning routine when he received a call from a lottery official, disclosing the news that would change his life.
“That sounds like a fairytale!” he laughed.
“Thank you so much. What great news!
“I’ve always enjoyed playing TattsLotto. I’ll buy a random ticket if there’s a draw on.
“Funnily enough, my wife has always been sceptical about me purchasing my TattsLotto tickets online because she thinks people only win with in-store tickets. But today, I’ve proved her wrong!
“I can’t wait to get off the phone and tell her the good news – she won’t believe me.
“My wife and I have always dreamt about taking a year off to travel.
“We want to go around Australia and explore.
“We can’t wait.”
Their winning 50-game QuickPick was purchased online at thelott.com – the official home of Australia’s lotteries.
The winning numbers in TattsLotto draw 4415 on 11 November 2023 were 2, 1, 30, 28, 24 and 23, while the supplementary numbers were 39 and 29.
