“My wife is grinning like a Cheshire cat!”: Orange man in wonderland after discovering $200,000 Lucky Lotteries win
An Orange man feels like he’s fallen down the rabbit hole of good fortune after the revelation he had won a magical $200,000 in the most recent Lucky Lotteries Mega Jackpot draw.
The New South Wales resident won the guaranteed 1st Prize of $200,000 in Lucky Lotteries Mega Jackpot draw 1632, drawn Tuesday 14 November 2023.
“I’ve got my wife here, and she’s grinning like a Cheshire cat!” he laughed.
“Thank you very much!
“It’s worked out perfectly, actually. We’ve been doing some renovations, and this is going to cover the lot!
“The most I’ve won is a chook at the pub, so this is awesome!
“Each week I treat myself to one $5 ticket, two $2 tickets, and a Powerball entry.
“We’re very pleased. We might even be able to retire earlier now.”
His winning entry of one number was purchased at Blackheath Newsagency, 245 Great Western Hwy, Blackheath.
Blackheath Newsagency owner Douglas Forsyth said he and the team were thrilled to have sold a 1st Prize winning entry.
“It’s a great feeling. We met the winning bloke yesterday and he had no idea when he checked his ticket,” he said.
“We last sold a 1st Prize winning entry in 2018, so it’s great news we’ve finally sold another.
“Congratulations to the lucky man and we wish him all the best with his prize!”
