A Melton couple’s very first lottery ticket has delivered a game-changing $1.28 million win in the weekend’s TattsLotto draw, giving them the boost they needed to get out of a rough trot.
When an official from The Lott called the pair on Monday morning, they erupted into cheers and screams, barely able to believe their first-ever ticket had delivered such an incredible win.
“Are you serious?!” the winning husband exclaimed.
“Is this true? $1.26 million! Oh my god!
“Jesus Christ! I can’t believe it! I’ve never done this before. This is my very first-time playing lotteries; very first time!
“Someone told me to try my luck at lotteries, and I thought ‘why not?’.
“We’ve been going through a tough time with our business, and it’s been incredibly difficult not to sell. But oh my god, this win is an absolute godsend!
“I think I’m dreaming. I think I’ve just woken up in a dream.
“Thank you so much. We’re so grateful.”
