A Mount Gambier man is looking forward to reuniting with his family after discovering he had won $1 million in Monday X Lotto four days after the draw. 

The winner held one of the two division one winning entries nationally in Monday & Wednesday X Lotto draw 3876, drawn Monday 10 June 2019.Each entry takes home a division one prize of $1 million. 

When we confirmed the news, the man was so overwhelmed, he was rendered speechless. 

“Oh my god. Oh my!” he uttered after a few moments of stunned silence. 

“I’ve been playing those numbers for years. I can’t believe they have come up! 

“They are just numbers that came to me years ago and I’ve played them ever since.” 

When asked how he planned to enjoy his newfound millionaire status, the emotional winner confessed he wanted to use his windfall to reunite his family. 

“I’m going to use it to find my family that I’ve lost touch with,” he declared. 

The winner, who wishes to remain anonymous, purchased his 8-game marked entry at Rosaville Takeaway & Lotteries, 234 Commercial Street West, Mount Gambier.
