A Browns Plains couple are busy planning their dream wedding after receiving a phone call with news they’re suddenly $200,000 richer.
The Brisbane residents took home the guaranteed 1st Prize of $200,000 in Lucky Lotteries Mega Jackpot draw 1450, drawn Tuesday 10 September 2019.
A Golden Casket official contacted the pair this afternoon to break the news, catching them completely off guard.
“Are you kidding me?” he laughed.
“That’s the house paid off!” the woman yelled.
“Thank you so much. Would you believe this was a free ticket!
“Wow. That’s so awesome. Certainly not what I was expecting to hear on a Tuesday!
“This is the best news and the best timing! It couldn’t have arrived at a better moment in our life.
“To say this prize will be helpful would be an understatement!”
When asked how they planned to enjoy their $200,000 windfall, the pair had plenty of ideas.
“We’re getting married soon and now we’ll be able to have our dream wedding,” they said.
“We’ll be able to finish off a few renovations that we’ve been planning for quite some time.
“And I’ve been wanting a shed in the backyard so now we’ll be doing that!”
The ecstatic couple, who wish to remain anonymous, purchased their winning entry at newsXpress Westpoint, Shop 11, Westpoint Shopping Centre, Browns Plains.
newsXpress Westpoint manager Kerstie Winfield said she was over-the-moon for her winner.
“It was such a nice surprise to discover we sold this winning entry!” she said.
“It’s lovely to see one of our local and regular customers take home this prize.
“We’ve had plenty of massive wins over the years and the excitement never fades!”
