Bonus Ticket Wins $200,000 Lucky Lotteries Prize
Two shocked Australians are celebrating winning a total of $300,000 playing Lucky Lotteries last week.
It had been a long tiring day at work for a woman from Tweed Heads in New South Wales. There’d been no time to check her phone or the July 22 Lucky Lotteries results. A quiet night was not on its way.
No way
When finally checking her phone, there were several missed calls from an unknown number. Finally answering the phone, she was told of her $100,000 win. “Oh my god! Oh my god! No way!” was her instant reply. Still surprised, she added: “This is not the phone call I was expecting. “My whole body has gone numb. I’m so pleased! You have no idea!”
It was a bit too early really to ask her how she’d spend her winnings. The question was still asked though and she replied: “I’m finding it hard to think if I’m honest.” With no clear idea of how to respond, she said: “I have lots of dreams in my head – maybe now I’ll start to chase some of them.”
There were still long shifts to be worked over the next few days. That’s just like a South Australian man who still went to work after winning a $150 million Australian Powerball jackpot. This lucky player was getting ready for a weekend celebration.
Two days later, a man from East Mackay in North Queensland, won a $200,000 Lucky Lotteries prize from a bonus ticket he’d won.
A few expletives were said when he found out about his win. Then he said: “How much have I won? Two hundred grand? Can you repeat that again?”
The perfect amount
He definitely knows how his winnings are going to be spent describing £200,000 as “the perfect amount”. “That’s exactly what I need to make me mortgage-free,” said the Lucky Lotteries winner.
He then said how people had laughed at him for playing lottery games. “I’ve always told them that one day I’d win. Funny that!” he joked.
