A lucky Melbourne family won TattsLotto division one prize of $717,000 in the weekend’s draw.
The winner is a victory resident who won one of the seven division one winning entries in TattsLotto draw 4305 on Saturday 22 October 2022.
The winning ticket was purchased at Spencer Street Lotto, L1-Cs-08B Collins Street Concourse, Southern Cross Station, 150 Spencer Street, Melbourne.
The lottery official talked to the winner and confirmed the win.
“It’s wonderful,” the winning woman cheered.
“I’ve put the ticket in a safe space because I’m so scared of losing it. We haven’t gotten over the shock yet!
“I went to manually check the winning numbers on Sunday morning and I completely missed number 21. I thought we were one number off winning division one!
“I went to the newsagency on Sunday morning to buy a newspaper, and while I was there, I asked for the winning numbers.
“I said to myself, ‘Oh, I’m sure we had number 21!’.
I looked up The Lott website and I entered my ticket number, and it came up that we’ve won division one. I couldn’t believe it.
“The ticket is shared amongst our family, and our adult children are stoked.
“We’re not too sure what we’ll spend the money on as we’re still trying to process it all.
“We hope to come together and celebrate sometime soon!”
