Morwell man became $100K richer in Instant Scratch-its draw
A Morwell man is looking forward to buying a house and some land this year after unwrapping a $100,000 prize on an Instant Scratch-Its ticket he received for Christmas.
His top prize-winning $5 Merry Christmas Instant Scratch-Its ticket was purchased at Morwell Lottery Centre, 174-176 Commercial Road, Morwell.
The lottery official talked to the winner and confirmed the win.
“It was a really good Christmas!” he exclaimed when speaking to an official from The Lott.
“My sister bought me a little pack of Instant Scratch-Its tickets for Christmas. We were standing around with family on Christmas Day, and while people were unwrapping gifts, I scratched these tickets.
“I said, ‘I think I just won $100,000!’. They thought I was bullsh**ing.
“I did wonder if my sister might be a bit devastated she didn’t scratch the ticket herself, but she was rapt I got it.
“I’ve been saving to buy a house and some land. This is a real boost to help set me up.
“It’s amazing!”
