A retired man from Murray Bridge is planning a jaunt overseas to America after discovering he had won the guaranteed $1,000,000 division one prize in Monday X Lotto draw 3742 drawn 26 February 2018. 

The happy winner was the only division one winner across Australia in Monday & Wednesday X Lotto draw 3742. 

When a SA Lotteries official spoke to the winner to confirm the win, the winner confessed he still couldn’t believe news. 

“Wahoo! That’s unbelievable! I can’t even imagine that!” the happy winner laughed in disbelief. 

“I know I found out early this morning when I checked the ticket, but I still can’t grasp it, or get over that amount of money. 

“We’ve been normal people on a normal wage all our lives and yeah, my goodness! I don’t know what to say!” 

When asked how the man planned to celebrate the win, he confessed he would have to wait a bit longer. 

“It’s not afternoon - so I can’t have a wine yet!” he laughed. 

The thrilled winner also revealed how he planned to spend the Monday X Lotto windfall. 

“I think what we’ll do is put it in a high interest account and leave it there for a little while,” he explained. 

“I think we’ll take out a little bit and probably buy a new car. We’ve got a clapped out Holden that is about 14 years old so it’s time for an upgrade! 

“We will also probably go over to America to visit family. We went a few years ago and thought it would be the only trip we’ll ever get to do. 

“Now we’ll be able to go and spend a bit of time there which will be good.” 

The happy winner, who wishes to remain anonymous, purchased his 18-game QuickPick entry from Mount Barker Central Newsagency, Shop 17, Mount Barker Central, McLaren Street, Mount Barker. 

Robert Staples, owner of Mount Barker Central Newsagency, said he was thrilled to have sold another division one winning entry. 

“I’ve been here eight years and haven’t had a winner, and now we’ve had two division one winners in just six weeks!” he exclaimed. 

“We hope the customer is happy with the prize and we hope that we can make it three in a row for another one of our customers!”
