A Gold Coast man has been momentarily lost for words after hearing the unexpected but welcomed news he’s suddenly $200,000 richer! 

The Queenslander won the guaranteed 1st Prize of $200,000 in Lucky Lotteries Mega Jackpot draw 1240, drawn Wednesday 6 March 2019. 

We had the pleasure of breaking the life-changing news to the man this morning, who was not expecting the exciting phone call. 

“Really?” he began to question. 

“Are you serious? You aren’t kidding me? 

“That’s fantastic! Thank you very much.” 

The family man revealed to us he’d only purchased a few Lucky Lotteries entries before snagging the 1st Prize. 

“I’ve been purchasing tickets into other lottery games for a couple of years but Lucky Lotteries caught my eye about a month ago,” he said.

“I honestly haven’t purchased many Lucky Lotteries entries before, I’ve only been playing for about a month and I’ve already won! I can’t believe it! 

“I will put this aside for the future, to help set up my family.” 

The winning ticket of four winning numbers was purchased online at thelott.com – Australia’s official lotteries.
