The New South Wales woman won the guaranteed 1st Prize of $200,000 in Lucky Lotteries Mega Jackpot draw 1174, drawn Monday 10 December 2018. The winner’s entry also won a consolation prize of $1,000, rounding up her total win to $201,000.

“Are you kidding me?

“Oh my god that is so good, I am so excited right now!

“I am shaking! I have never won anything before!

“This is amazing!

“Thank you so much!”

The woman revealed that she’d only just started playing Lucky Lotteries and couldn’t believe she’d already won a major prize.

“When I saw it was at $30 million I thought, why not, you never know,” she said.

When asked how she might spend her windfall, the ecstatic woman knew exactly how she’d like to use her prize.

“We’ve been looking at a boat that we really, really like and this could buy us that boat,” she explained.

“We haven’t had the money to buy it before now so I am so excited that we finally can!

“My husband is going to be stoked! I can’t wait to go tell him the news.

“This is going to be the best Christmas present I’ve ever received!

“I’m still shaking!”
