Liverpool guy grabs $250,000 recently in a scratch off lottery game

A Liverpool man was on the hunt for a new home, a Saturday Lotto entry and little snack when he spontaneously scratched an Instant Scratch-Its ticket and won a whopping $250,000.

The top prize-winning $10 Instant Scratch-Its ticket was purchased at Liverpool Plaza Newsagency, Shop 26, Liverpool Plaza, 165-191 Macquarie Street, Liverpool.

“This is great, mate! It still hasn’t sunk in,” the winning man laughed when an official from The Lott confirmed his windfall. “I’m honestly still in a state of shock!

“I was getting some lunch, doing a little bit of house hunting, and thought I’d stop in and purchase a Saturday Lotto entry over the weekend.

“While I was there, I noticed this Instant Scratch-Its ticket and thought I’d get one too for a bit of fun.
