Hardworking Casino dad cries tears of joy following $1 million winExcited owners at the Plaza News Casino

A hardworking Casino dad has described his $1 million prize as “the best Christmas present ever” after discovering his magical win in Friday night’s Weekday Windfall draw.


The New South Wales resident held one of two division one winning entries nationally in Weekday Windfall draw 4484, drawn Friday 20 December. Each division one winning entry pocketed a clean $1 million.


The happy winner was moved to tears when an official from The Lott confirmed the special news.

 


“Thank you! Thank you! Thank you!” he cried.

 

“Thank you, lord. This is the biggest blessing. I’m crying.

 

“I can’t believe it. I checked my ticket yesterday and haven’t stopped thinking maybe it’s just a dream.

 

“I work so hard for my children and their future, and I pray every day for blessings like this for our family.

 

“This is the best Christmas present ever, ever, ever in my entire life!

 

“I work every day. I’ll be working over Christmas too. It’s all for my family.

 

“This is going to set us up. I’ll be able to buy a house.

 

“Thank you so much!”

 


His winning 15-game QuickPick entry was purchased at Plaza News, Shop 1, 169 Canterbury Street, Casino.

 

Plaza News owner Bill Rose said he was thrilled to sell a Weekday Windfall division one winning entry.

 

“It’s so exciting. I’ve been telling customers all year that I am going to sell a winning ticket, and I did it!” he said.

 

“Our lovely customers will be over the moon. We’ll be spreading the good news to them all week.

 

“The last time we sold a division one winning entry was in October 2018.

 

“Congratulations to our winner on your life-changing win. We are so happy for you.”

 

The winning numbers in Weekday Windfall draw 4484 on Friday 20 December 2024 were 20, 45, 7, 15, 14 and 31, while the supplementary numbers were 42 and 4.
