Share this story

A Penrith family man in lockdown ended his working week with the thrilling news he’d won $200,000 in the latest Lucky Lotteries Mega Jackpot draw.

The Greater Western Sydney man scored the $200,000 1st Prize in Lucky Lotteries Mega Jackpot draw 1537, drawn Friday, July 2.

When an official from The Lott called the winner on Friday afternoon, he was busy at work and completely oblivious to his win.

“That’s great news!” he exclaimed.

“I just had a look on my phone to see, and it had just come up on my screen.

“I always buy a Lucky Lotteries ticket now and then, and I’m thankful a win has come my way!

“We’re currently in lockdown at the moment, so this makes me very happy.

“Thank you very much!”

When asked how he planned to enjoy his prize, the stoked bloke was too stunned by the revelation to make any concrete plans.

“I’m honestly not too sure how I’ll spend the prize money, but I’ll definitely keep it low-key,” the winning man shared.

“I plan to spoil my family and friends and make sure to enjoy every bit of the prize.

“I can guarantee we will be doing some celebrating!

“Thank you again!”

The happy winner, who wishes to remain anonymous, purchased his winning entry of one random number online at thelott.com – Australia’s official lotteries.
