A Victorian mum was swept into a whirlwind of joy this morning when she discovered her routine lottery ticket was worth a staggering $1 million from last night's Weekday Windfall draw.
The Melburnian held the only division one winning entry nationally in Weekday Windfall draw 4450, drawn Wednesday 2 October 2024 and looks forward to a neat $1 million.
The cheerful Langwarrin local was completely oblivious to her newly minted millionaire status until she received the surprise of a lifetime from lottery officials this morning.
“Oh, you’re kidding!” she shared.
“Oh my god! I’ve won $1 million?
“You have made my day!
“I can’t think right now. I don’t know how to feel.
“I will only tell my best friend and give my children a call eventually.
“This will truly help me in all aspects of life – such a great boost.
“My kids don’t live in Victoria anymore. They’ve all moved interstate, and this will help me move closer to them.
“Thank you so much for the phone call.”
Her winning 12-game QuickPick was purchased at Langwarrin Lotto, Shop 27, South Gateway, 230 Cranbourne-Frankston Road, Langwarrin.
