Werribee’s Santa: Local mum to spread Christmas joy to her family with $1 million Weekday Windfall win
A generous Werribee mum is making this holiday season unforgettable, planning to use every cent of her million-dollar win from last night’s Weekday Windfall draw to create a magical Christmas for her family.
The Greater Melbourne resident held one of the four division one winning entries nationally in Weekday Windfall draw 4473, drawn Monday 25 November 2024. Each entry scored $1 million.
The jubilant woman revealed she checked her ticket late last night, only to be left speechless by the life-enhancing discovery that she had just become a newly-minted millionaire.
“I couldn’t believe it. It’s a shock to the system,” she exclaimed.
“I thought I’d check the ticket last night before I went to bed. I was so surprised when I discovered the win!
“I’ve already told my husband and my children; we’re all blown away by the news.
“We’re such givers, not takers, so we know this will just help our entire family. I can’t wait to spoil them!
“I’ve always believed that we leave this world with nothing, which is why it’s so important to give back to others while we can. We appreciate every day as it comes.
“We can’t wait to make this Christmas the best one yet.
“Thank you very much for the best phone call!”
Her winning marked 12-game entry was purchased at Werribee Authorised Newsagency, 16 Station Place, Werribee.
Werribee Authorised Newsagency owner Kevin Diep said the million-dollar win was such amazing news and his entire team was feeling over the moon to have sold the division one winning entry.
