A Plainland man has been given an extra reason to enjoy Easter after bagging a $848,000 Saturday Gold Lotto win on the weekend.
 
The Queenslander held one of the six division one winning entries nationally in Saturday Lotto draw 4455 on Saturday 30 March 2024. Each division one winning entry scored $848,230.70.
 
“It’s a bit of a shock!” the winning man exclaimed when we revealed his windfall yesterday.
 
“I’m starting to shake!
 

“This will be so good. I would love to get a home for myself so I can enjoy my retirement.
 

“I’ve been playing for years and buying tickets for the past 30 years.
 
“This year, I haven’t won a prize at all… and now this! This is really, really good!
 
“I’m so grateful!
