An Woodville West woman in her 30s has confessed she is still in shock after discovering she is now a millionaire after scoring division one in last night’s Monday & Wednesday X Lotto draw.
The Adelaide winner held one of the three division one winning entries nationally in Monday & Wednesday X Lotto draw 3897, drawn Wednesday 21 August 2019. Each winner takes home the guaranteed division one prize of $1 million.
Sharing her joy with a SA Lotteries offical this afternoon, the woman recounted how she discovered her life-changing win.
“I checked my ticket last night after the draw and saw that I had won,” she explained.
“I couldn’t believe it. I woke all of my family up to make sure I wasn’t seeing things.
“It was only when they double-checked my online account did I belive I had won $1 million!”
When asked how she planned to enjoy her windfall, the thrilled winner revealed she couldn’t fathom the news that such a large amount was about to land in her bank account.
“I don’t know! I’ve never won more than $20! It’s a lot of money!” she laughed.
“I’ve only started playing lotteries recently and have only bought a few tickets online so I never thought I would win.
“Now I have I can’t decide what I’ll do!”
