A Riverwood grandad is looking forward to retiring earlier than he’d expected after discovering he took home a $200,000 Lucky Lotteries prize yesterday.


The Sydney resident won the guaranteed 1st Prize of $200,000 in Lucky Lotteries Mega Jackpot draw 1279, drawn Monday 15 April 2019. Confirming his win with us this morning, the man said his prize had landed at the perfect time. 

“Wow! This is unbelievable!” he exclaimed. 

“This couldn’t come any more in handy!

“This is going to make a huge difference in my life!

“Thank you so much. This has made my day.

“I’m so excited! I can’t believe it!

“I’d never won anything major in my life!”

The overjoyed winner told us he’d been playing Lucky Lotteries from “day one” and his prize would go a long way. 

“I’ve been playing Lucky Lotteries for decades,” he explained. 

“I do enjoy working but I am looking forward to cutting down on the amount of hours I do. 

“This will certainly be a great help!

“We will pay some bills, spoil the grandchildren and use it for our retirement!”

The winner, who wishes to remain anonymous, purchased his winning entry of three random numbers at Lucky Len, Shop 35, Riverwood Plaza, 257 Belmore Road, Riverwood. 

Lucky Len owner Martin Ali said it was fantastic to discover the outlet had sold another major prize winning entry.

“It feels great! This is the second time one of our customers has won a major prize in less than six months!” he exclaimed. 

“Just at the end of last year one of our beautiful customers also won 1st Prize in a Lucky Lotteries Mega Jackpot draw. 

“We’re so happy for this customer and we wish them all the best!”
