Purrfect Lottery Surprise Thanks to Monkey
Purrfect Lottery Surprise Thanks to Monkey
Here’s one of the strangest stories of the year in the lottery world. Megan from Penzance in England has a cat called Monkey that has become renowned for bringing home some very strange items.
There’s been everything from a children’s dummy to a wall plug. Recently, Megan was surprised when Monkey climbed up on the window with something in her mouth and it turned out to be a scratchcard.
Her owner was soon purring with delight when finding out it had won £10. Now she plans on buying something nice and perhaps a treat for Monkey too.
What next?
Just where the scratchcard had been found remains a mystery. Just imagine if next time Monkey returns home with a EuroMillions Superdraw winning jackpot.
Tonight is the big night with the €130 million (£110 million) EuroMillions Superdraw taking place. There’s still time to buy the ticket from Lottery24 that might just change your life forever.
Restaurant revelation
It took a man from Queensland two weeks to find out he’d won a $2.5 million lottery prize. His big win came in the September 7 Saturday Gold Lotto draw but not until he was dining at a restaurant that the win was discovered.
While waiting for their food, his wife suggested they finally check their lottery tickets. He wondered why she was getting excited and when looking at the ticket believed only $42 had been won. His wife’s tickets had only won $3.20 so he was already pleased. Then a second glance saw him realise the win was actually $2.5 million.
He’d bought his ticket while in Brisbane to watch an Aussie Rules Football match. His side lost but now he thinks “it was the best trip ever.”
Plans for the lottery winnings include buying his daughters a home. He’d promised to do that if a big win ever came along. Some money will also be put towards his retirement.
