A Yagoona man has taken a trip down memory lane after his $100,000 Lucky Lotteries windfall came years after his wife also won big in another lottery game.
The New South Wales resident won the guaranteed 1st Prize of $100,000 in Lucky Lotteries Super Jackpot draw 10824, drawn Monday 15 January 2023.
When an official from The Lott reached out to confirm his win this morning, the elated man was over the moon and admitted he already had generous plans for his winnings.
“Thank you! That’s awesome!” he cheered.
“I can’t wait to tell my wife. I’m going to call her straight after this.
“I still have the bottle of champagnes from our last major lottery win!
“My wife won about half a million dollars years and years ago now.
“How incredible. We’ve been pretty fortunate with The Lott.
“I’ll be able to give the money to my son to help him with a house deposit so he can own a home.
“Thank you again. This has just made my day.”
His winning entry of one random number was purchased online at thelott.com – the official home of Australia’s lotteries.
