A lucky dad in New South Wales received the ultimate Christmas present, a million dollars, just in time for the holidays. The father, who lives in Casino in the beautiful Northern Rivers region of NSW, stumbled upon his good fortune when he purchased a QuickPick 15-game entry at his local newsagency.
The man, who wishes to remain anonymous, was one of two division-one winners on Friday, winning a whopping one million dollars. When The Lott, the official lottery organization, called to inform him of his newfound wealth, the man was overcome with emotion, shedding tears of joy.
"It's unbelievable. I checked my ticket yesterday and I still can't believe it's real," the man shared with lottery officials. "I work tirelessly for my children's future, and I pray every day for blessings like this for our family. This is truly the best Christmas present I could have ever imagined in my entire life!"
The grateful father plans to use the money to purchase a house for his family and will continue working to provide for them. "I work hard every day, and I'll be working over Christmas too. It's all for my family," he said with a smile.
The news of the winning ticket has also brought excitement to the owner of Plaza News, Bill Rose, who sold the lucky ticket. "I've been telling customers all year that I'm going to sell a winning ticket, and I did it!" an elated Rose shared with officials. The last time the store had a division-one winner was back in 2018.
Interestingly, the second winning ticket for the Weekly Windfall division-one prize was sold all the way in Western Australia. It goes to show that luck knows no boundaries and can strike anyone, anywhere. Congratulations to the lucky winners and may their newfound wealth bring them joy and happiness this holiday season and beyond.
