A Nanango, Queensland woman has become $1 million richer than last week after winning huge in the lottery. She is one of the four division one winners nationally in the Saturday’s Gold Lotto draw 3755 on July 15. Each winner took home a prize worth $985,744.11.

Right since she checked her Saturday Gold Lottery entry yesterday, she was eagerly waiting for the call from Golden Casket to confirm her division one big win. She added, “That is fantastic, that is fantastic, now it’s confirmed I can believe it.”

She said that she was sitting and marking the numbers drawn. First, she had two on one line, then four and then boom boom. She got all the other numbers matched. Her family too double-checked the winning numbers. However, she said, “I won’t believe it until I get that phone call.”

The winner who chose not to reveal her identity purchased her 18^th game Quick Pick entry from Nanango Newsagency. The woman already has some grand plans to use her windfall to help her family, buy a new house, and travel. “It couldn’t have come at a better time,” she added.

The Nanango Newsagency owner Alison Warren stated that the latest division one winning entry cemented the outlet’s reputation. “We’ve now sold about four division one winning entries during the past 15 years. Congratulations to our customer. I hope they enjoy their prize”, she added. The biggest was of a store syndicate that won $ 11 million in Powerball.

The Saturday’s Gold Lotto draw winning numbers were: 25, 44, 41, 1, 11 and 22.

The supplementary numbers were 9 and 23.
