Gladstone Mother Ends Shift With $100,000 Windfall
$6,000 Welcome Bonus
A Gladstone mother has left work on a high after discovering her $100,000 life-enhancing windfall from the recent Lucky Lotteries Super Jackpot draw.
The Central Queensland resident scored the guaranteed 1st Prize of $100,000 in Lucky Lotteries Super Jackpot draw 10499, drawn Tuesday 26 October 2021.
The hard-working woman was oblivious to her good fortune and was on her way home from work when an official from The Lott called to reveal the thrilling news.
“Oh! Oh! Oh my god,” she exclaimed.
“I was confused on why you were calling! I was very curious.
“Is this real? Are you real? I just finished work, and this has made my day!
“I seriously can’t wait to tell my husband and children. They won’t believe me!
“Cooking dinner is off the cards tonight. I’ll have to go out and celebrate!
“I’ve been purchasing an entry into Lucky Lotteries for quite some time now. I usually only win a free ticket. To win $100,000 is amazing.”
When asked how she planned to enjoy her windfall, the elated woman said she’d purchase a new set of wheels.
“I’ve been eyeing off a new car. This has come just at the right time,” she shared.
“How exciting!”
Her winning entry of 10 random numbers was purchased online at thelott.com – the official home of Australia’s lotteries.

Lucky Lotteries Super Jackpot and Lucky Lotteries Mega Jackpot are raffle-style games, which means there is a set number of tickets in each draw. As each ticket number is unique there is no sharing of prizes.
Each game has two draws – one that determines the winning numbers and one that determines the jackpot number. If the jackpot number matches one of the winning numbers, then the Jackpot Prize is won. If the jackpot number does not match one of the winning numbers, the Jackpot Prize will climb for the next draw.
Tickets can be purchased at any licenced lottery outlet, online from thelott.com or via The Lott mobile app.
