A NSW mum nearly skipped buying her weekly OZ lotto ticket which, it turns out, would been a $15 million mistake.
BREAKING: A lucky punter in Western Australia has just struck gold in the latest Oz Lotto draw, claiming an incredible $7.5 million windfall. This life-changing news comes from Tuesday’s draw, where they are one of only two winners of the coveted division one prize.
In draw #1648, the winning numbers were 20, 35, 31, 3, 42, 37, and 7, with supplementary numbers of 33, 30, and 18. The excitement is palpable as this win boosts the total number of division one winners in WA for 2025 to 58, marking an extraordinary year for the state.
Despite the good fortune in division one, luck did not extend to division two, with all four winners of the $74,375.25 prize hailing from eastern states. However, eight West Australians snagged a nice consolation of $4,816.35 each from division three.
The buzz surrounding the win reached Harvey Newsagency in the state’s South West, where manager Nayan Patel reported a flurry of excitement among customers. “Lots of customers have been coming into the store this morning congratulating us and sharing the excitement, even in the rain,” Patel said. “We sold two division two Saturday Lotto prizes in the last two months; it’s brilliant to finally sell a division one winning ticket.”
This recent victory follows a $2 million win from a ticket purchased at the same newsagency during Saturday’s Lotto draw, further solidifying WA’s reputation for luck in 2025.
As this story develops, it’s clear that the impact of this win extends beyond just financial gain. The jubilance felt in local communities demonstrates the power of such windfalls to bring people together in celebration.
