A Withcott man is getting ready to swap his work boots for thongs at a seaside escape after pocketing $100,000 in yesterday’s Lucky Lotteries draw.
 
The Lockyer Valley resident held the 1st Prize winning entry in Lucky Lotteries Super Jackpot draw 10961, drawn Wednesday 16 April 2025. He looks forward to a total prize of $100,000.
 
When we called to confirm his win, the hardworking man revealed he could barely believe he was a major prize winner and shared he would be celebrating the milestone for months to come.
 
“It’s wonderful! I didn’t think I’d ever win the big one!” he said.
 
“I saw a story about a local fella winning Lucky Lotteries recently, and so I thought I’d give it a whirl myself.
 
“I’m so happy to be one of those winners.
 
“I’m going to remember this call for a very long time.
 
“I’ve already got a bottle of red wine cracked open to celebrate the win. I think we’ll be celebrating this one for a while.”
 
With a $100,000 boost heading his way, the winning man shared that he was ready to dust off his passport and escape to somewhere warm.
 
“It’s certainly going to come in handy!” he said.
 
“Once the money hits our bank account, I reckon a holiday could be on the cards. Somewhere warm and with a beach could be nice.
 
“We haven’t gone on a holiday in quite some time, so I think I’ll have to go find my passport first.”
 
His winning entry of seven random numbers was purchased via The Lott app – the official home of Australia’s lotteries.
