“Yay!” he screamed.

“Thank you so much.

“We are so overwhelmed and very excited!

“We can’t believe it!

“Yesterday morning my wife and I jumped onto the Lott app to check our entry and the app told me I’d won something. I thought it would be a small prize, I had no idea it would be this much!

“I don’t usually play Super 66 but I chose to for this draw, and it’s paid off.”

The generous dad revealed his unexpected win would give him the freedom to treat his family.

“I will spoil my family, they deserve to be spoilt,” he laughed.

“All I’ve been doing is working so I can’t wait to take my family on a holiday, we want to explore Queensland!”
