A Milton man has declared an overwhelming strange feeling led him to purchase a Lucky Lotteries Super Jackpot ticket which won him $100,000.
The Queensland player scored the guaranteed 1st Prize of $100,000 in Lucky Lotteries Super Jackpot draw 10367, drawn Friday 17 April 2020.
This morning, an official from the Lott called the Brisbane man, who admitted the win had come as a complete shock.
“I saw I had an email from the Lott telling me I’d won, but I thought it must be a scam, or some kind of belated April Fools prank!” he laughed.
“I thought it was weird though and I wanted to be sure, I thought ‘imagine if it’s real’.
“I logged into my account and that’s when I saw it was real! I thought ‘Oh crikey’.
“It’s magic!
“You know, it’s funny, because I never buy Lucky Lotteries tickets, but the other day I had this strange feeling that I might actually win something big from it.
“It was just an overwhelming feeling that this time might be different. The rest is history!
“I don’t want to say it’s fate or anything like that, but it certainly feels weird!
“It’s blown my mind!”
When asked how he planned to enjoy his windfall, the overwhelmed winner declared it had come at a fantastic time.
“There’s not much security with my job at the moment and I think I will be out of work any day now,” he shared.
“It’s really come at a magical time.
“We are going to use the prize to pay off some bills and then I’d love to do some pampering, take my wife to a day spa and plan a holiday overseas.
“I am not sure where yet, but somewhere on our bucket list!
“It’s cool, really cool. The best thing is it gives us peace of mind in a very uncertain time.”
The thrilled man, who wishes to remain anonymous, purchased his winning entry of 5 random numbers online at thelott.com – Australia’s official lotteries.
The Lucky Lotteries Mega Jackpot prize is now $2.44 million for draw 1483 while the Lucky Lotteries Super Jackpot is now $4.79 million for draw 10368.
