Moonta Bay mum became overnight millionaire in Monday & Wednesday X Lotto draw

A Moonta Bay mum has discovered that winning $1 million in Monday & Wednesday X Lotto can come with a physical side effect after she started feeling faint during the confirmation phone call.

The Northern Yorke Peninsula resident held one of the two division one winning entries in Monday & Wednesday's X Lotto draw, drawn Monday 26 June 2023. Each entry took home $1 million.

This morning, an official from The Lott reached out to the unsuspecting South Australian woman, who was left shocked by the revelation.

�Are you serious?! Far out!� she joyfully yelled.

�I shouldn�t say this but, bloody hell! �I�m going to faint in a minute. This is life-changing.

�I wondered who was calling me at seven o�clock in the morning. I thought it was a hoax! �I�ve been playing for ages and ages.

I thought for so long that I would never win division one! �I just have an automated QuickPick that runs every week. I know the numbers by heart.

�I�m going to ring my children after I compose myself.

�I can�t believe this.� With $1 million about to set her up for the new financial year, the regular player declared helping her children was a number one priority.

�I�m going to fix my children up with some houses.

Oh my god, they�re not going to believe this,� she said.

�I�m retired too, so this will really be a boost to retirement.

�Thank you so much for this phone call.�

Her winning entry 18-game QuickPick was purchased online at thelott.com � the official home of Australia�s lotteries.
