A Coffs Harbour man has confessed he’s still reeling from the revelation he won a $100,000 prize in a Lucky Lotteries Super Jackpot draw from a ticket he didn’t even buy.
 
The stunned winner held the 1st Prize winning entry in Lucky Lotteries Super Jackpot draw 10884, drawn Friday 18 October 2024.
 
“Oh my god! I still can’t believe it!” the man cried.
 
“Wow! I went in to check my ticket and it came up saying I need to call The Lott. They said, ‘I think you’ve just won $100,000!’.  I said, ‘What?! No!’.
 
“It’s so out of the blue.

“I didn’t even pay for the ticket. I bought a Powerball ticket, and I got this free bonus ticket, and that’s what I won.

“I kept having this feeling that because I didn’t buy the ticket, you were going to tell me I haven’t actually won.
 
“I guess it was just meant to be.
 
“I’ve got a mortgage, so I’ll use some of it for that. And I’d like to get a new car – my current one isn’t crash hot.
 
“It’s come at just the right time.”
 
The winning entry of one random number was from The Plaza News Coffs, Shop 68, Park Beach Plaza, 253 Pacific Highway, Coffs Harbour.
 
The Plaza News Coffs owner Darren Girard said he was thrilled to have sold the outlets second 1st Prize winning entry in just four weeks.
 
“Wow! We can’t believe we’ve sold another 1st Prize winning Lucky Lotteries entry after our last one a couple of weeks ago,” he said.

“We appear to be on a winning streak, and we couldn’t be prouder.
 
“A massive congratulations to our winner and we hope you enjoy your winnings.”
