The Wyndham family held one of the four division one winning tickets in TattsLotto draw 4501, drawn on Saturday, 7 September 2024, securing a $2.5 million prize.
In 2024, there have been 13 division one winning tickets sold in the western Melbourne area, amounting to over $14.86 million in prize money.
The excited mum shared that she checked her ticket on Saturday night, right after the draw, and spent the rest of the night in disbelief, unable to sleep.
“Oh my god! Oh my god,” she exclaimed.
“How lovely! I can’t believe it.
“This is awesome. Oh my god!
“I checked our ticket on Saturday before bed and couldn’t believe it.
“At first, I thought we had won $2,500, but when I showed one of my daughters, she told me to check again.
“We’ve been playing together for a long time. I started this about 20 years ago, and then my two daughters joined in later. We’ve been playing ever since.
“I can retire now! Woo-hoo! It’s so exciting. I’ll have more time to spend with my family.
“Thank you so much.”
Their winning 25-game QuickPick ticket was purchased at Hudsons Lotto & Dry Cleaning, located at Shop 5, 145 Watton Street, Werribee.
Rahul Kapoor, the owner of Hudsons Lotto & Dry Cleaning, was thrilled to have sold his 21st division one winning ticket and be a part of this momentous occasion.
“It’s an incredible honour to be part of someone’s life-changing moment. We take pride in being a trusted outlet in our community, and we look forward to continuing this legacy of joy and hope!” he said.
“Our customers will be ecstatic! It’s not just a win for the lucky ticket holder; it’s a win for the whole community. There will be lots of excitement and curiosity about who the winner is.
“The last division one winning ticket we sold was about 18 months ago. We took over the store just last year, and it’s thrilling to have another win already.
“Congratulations to our division one winner! We hope this win brings you joy and fulfillment. May you create wonderful memories and achieve your dreams.”
