Four days after the draw, Bundaberg’s newest multi-millionaire has come forward to claim their $2.1 million Saturday Gold Lotto division one prize, halting our search for the mystery winner.
 
The Queensland player held one of the 14 division one winning entries nationally in Saturday Gold Lotto draw 4535, drawn Saturday 4 January 2025. Each division one winning entry pocketed $2,142,857.15.
 
If the winner had been part of The Lott Members Club and registered their ticket to a player card or online account, they would have been alerted to their good fortune earlier. Instead, we had been eagerly waiting for the ticketholder to check their ticket and come forward.
 
However, how the winner plans to enjoy life as a multi-millionaire will forever be a mystery as they have chosen to remain completely anonymous and celebrate in private.
 
The winning entry was sold at Free Choice Bundaberg (Hinkler Lucky Lotto), Shop 44, Hinkler Central Shopping Centre, 16 Maryborough Street, Bundaberg.
 
Free Choice Bundaberg (Hinkler Lucky Lotto) owner Cory Nicholson said he was thrilled his outlet had sold a division one winning entry.
 
“I am so pleased that we were able to be part of something that will change the lives of one of our customers,” he said.

“I’m sure the buzz will continue in the store this week. Our staff will have extra big smiles on and hopefully, we can sell another winning ticket soon.

“Our customers have been waiting for a division one win from our store. I have owned the outlet for nearly four years, and this is our first division one win.
 
“We really hope the win allows the customer to have the freedom to be able to do what makes them happy. Whether that be buying a house, helping family or friends, travelling or anything else.
 
“We really appreciate the support our customers provide by coming into store and supporting our small family business.
 
“Small business is difficult and without customers visiting our store we would not be able to employ local people and support local causes.
 
“Thank you all so much!”
