What started as a seemingly ordinary day for one Milton man quickly turned into one of the happiest days of his life after he received the news he’d won $100,000 in yesterday’s Lucky Lotteries draw.

The Shoalhaven local held the 1st Prize winning entry in Lucky Lotteries Super Jackpot draw 10864, drawn Wednesday 31 July 2024. He also snagged a consolation prize boosting his total win to $101,000.

“No way! That’s unreal!” he screamed when we confirmed his win.

“It’s honestly a little unbelievable. I’m shaking right now.

“I’ve been playing various lottery games since I was 20 years old dreaming of a win like this.

“At first, I thought this was a bogus prank call but boy was I wrong.

“I need to go lie down this is such amazing news.

“This is the best day ever! I had no idea that I’d won anything before you called.”

When asked how he’d use his unexpected windfall, the shocked man didn’t hesitate to say this prize would go straight to his mortgage.

“This will go a long way to making a dint in my mortgage,” he cheered.

“It also means I’ll be able to retire earlier and live a little more stress-free.

“It’s the best news! You’ve made my day!”

The winning man’s entry of four consecutive numbers was purchased via The Lott app – the official home of Australia’s lotteries.
