A Windaroo resident or visitor won $1.25 million in the weekend’s Saturday Gold Lotto draw but may be unaware of the fact they’ve won a division one prize.
The mystery ticketholder held one of 16 division one winning entries across Australia in Saturday Gold Lotto draw 4243, drawn Saturday 19 March 2022, and has scored an incredible prize of $1,25 million.
The winning entry was not registered to a player card, which means officials from The Lott have no way of letting the winner know of their life-enhancing win and will have to wait for them to check their ticket.
The winning ticket was purchased at TSG Windaroo News, Shop 9 Windaroo Shopping Village, 2 Carl Heck Boulevard, Windaroo.
TSG Windaroo News owner Anil Balia shared he was overjoyed the shop had sold a division one winning entry.
“The store has been through a lot over the last 12 months, having almost been destroyed by fire, so this breathes life back into the store and the entire team,” he exclaimed.
“We’d never sold a division one winning entry before it’s extremely exciting.
“Many of our customers are regular visitors and feel like family, so they’ve been sharing in our joy. Everyone is over the moon.
“This gives us hope to keep going and continue serving the Windaroo community.
“We’d like to congratulate the winner and hope that this fantastic win brings great joy and happiness to their life. Make the best of it and we hope you continue to visit and support us too!”
The Lott spokesperson James Eddy said he was eager to speak to the mystery winner and give them the amazing news.
“It’s likely this winner has no idea they are one of Australia’s latest millionaires,” he said.
“We’re urging people all players who purchased a ticket at TSG Windaroo News to check their tickets as soon as possible.
“Imagine how exciting it would be to realise you’ve won $1.25 million! Your dreams could well come true, you could take that trip you’ve always dreamed of or buy your dream car.
“Make sure you check your tickets and if you do discover that you are holding the winning ticket, contact The Lott on 131 868 to begin the process of claiming your prize.”
