A Wynnum woman who always had an inkling she’d win the lottery one day was overjoyed to discover she had become an overnight millionaire in last night’s Weekday Windfall draw.

The Port of Brisbane resident held one of the two division one winning entries in Weekday Windfall draw 4501, drawn Wednesday 29 January 2025. She looks forward to a neat $1 million.

Despite discovering she was a newly-crowned millionaire before bed last night, the Queenslander shared she slept peacefully knowing a boost was coming her way.

“Thank you very much!” she exclaimed.

“It’s finally kicking in that I’ve won $1 million!

“I’ve always felt like it was going to happen. I just had this feeling for years.

“I discovered the win last night and surprisingly I slept pretty good!

“It will be a security blanket for us and help us pay off our mortgage.

“I’ll also look to give some of the prize to my son and help him with his first property.

“It’s going to be a good day ahead!”

Her winning System entry was purchased via The Lott app – the official home of Australia’s lotteries.
