A Wollongong woman has had her workday interrupted by the life-changing news she is now $200,000 richer from winning the 1st Prize in today’s Lucky Lotteries Mega Jackpot draw.
The New South Wales player won the guaranteed 1st Prize of $200,000 in Lucky Lotteries Mega Jackpot draw 1352, drawn Friday 14 June 2019.
When a NSW Lotteries official confirmed the win this morning, the winner couldn’t contain her shock at the news.
“Heavens! I might have a heart attack!” she exclaimed.
“Oh my gosh, I can’t believe it. I’m having a moment here. Gosh! Oh my! I’m glad I am sitting down.
“I was just sitting here doing some work and didn’t expect this when I answered the phone!”
The shocked-but-happy winner revealed she had been playing Lucky Lotteries Mega Jackpot for years.
“I’ve been playing for a while!” she revealed.
“My sister plays too and we always talk about that little thrill of excitement when you receive an email you’ve won.
“You always think it might be the big one, but it ends up being $10. We always say we’ve had a big win even if it is just $10.
“I don’t think she’ll believe me when I tell her I’ve won $200,000!”
When asked how she planned to enjoy her windfall, the thrilled winner declared an overseas holiday was on the horizon.
“Hopefully I’ll be able to retire a bit sooner and give up work for good!” she exclaimed.
“I’ve always wanted to travel to Ireland so I hope we’ll be able to head off on a holiday!”
The winner also confessed she planned to celebrate her win in a sweet way.
“I’m going to go and eat an awful lot of chocolate!” she laughed.
