A Wollongong tradesman who has ‘never even won a meat tray’ was today thrilled to discover he won $200,000 in yesterday’s Lucky Lotteries Mega Jackpot draw.

The regional New South Wales resident won the guaranteed 1st Prize of $200,000 in Lucky Lotteries Mega Jackpot draw 1331, drawn Wednesday 29 May 2019.

As well as winning the guaranteed 1st Prize, the man also won a consolation prize of $1,000, bolstering his total win to $201,000.

Sharing his joy with us this morning, the happy man revealed his win had come as a shock.

“Wow!” he laughed.

“I did not expect this at all. This is bloody awesome!

“I’ve never even won a meat tray! I’ve never won anything!

“What a good time!

“This has made my day. It’s unbelievable!”

The hardworking man said it would be difficult to concentrate at work after discovering he’d won the 1st Prize. 

“God I want to walk off the job right now and take the rest of the day off,” he declared.

“It’s going to be hard to concentrate. I might take a sickie tomorrow. 

“It sure makes the day easier though.”

When we asked how he planned to use his prize, the tradesman said he had a few ideas.

“I think I will take my wife out for a nice dinner this weekend to celebrate,” he said.

“Then I’m going to buy myself a few new toys and put some on the mortgage.”

The man, who wishes to remain anonymous, purchased his winning entry of two consecutive numbers online at thelott.com – Australia’s official lotteries.
