A Narellan woman has been left in sheer disbelief after realising a ticket she had been holding for almost two weeks had bagged her $200,000 in a recent Lucky Lotteries Mega Jackpot draw.
 
The New South Wales resident won the 1st Prize winning entry in Lucky Lotteries Mega Jackpot draw 1665 on Monday 29 April 2024.
 
The winning woman was completely oblivious to her win until she checked her ticket on Friday and turned her day completely upside-down.
 
“You’re joking!” she cheered when we confirmed the good news.
 
“I just can’t believe it. It’s amazing.
 
“The most I’ve ever won on anything is about seventy-five bucks!
 
“I’m so overwhelmed. I’m glad you’ve confirmed it now because I didn’t want to tell anyone in case it wasn’t true.
 
“Now that I’ve spoken to you, I can call everyone and tell them the wonderful news.
 
“I’ve got a dentist appointment today, so I can’t wait for that to be over. Then I’ll be able to celebrate.” 
 
When asked how she planned to use her newfound lottery loot, the Sydneysider was too stunned to make any immediate decisions.
 
“I haven’t got a clue!” she said.
 
“I don’t know really. I’m just in shock. I think I’ll take some time to think about it.”
 
The winning entry of one random number was purchased from Narellan Newsagency, Shop 33, Narellan Town Centre, 326 Camden Valley Way.
 
The Narellan Newsagency owner David Thomsen said he and the team were thrilled to have sold a 1st Prize winning ticket and hoped their winning streak continued.
 
 “We’re over the moon to have sold a winning ticket to a customer and hopefully we can back it up by selling the coveted Jackpot Prize of $17 million!” he said.
 
“We’ve recently sold a couple of division two prizes, so perhaps we are working our way to another win.
 
“We certainly enjoy selling the dream! We wish our fortunate winner all the best and hope to see them in-store again soon!”
