A Burpengary duo brought home a major lottery prize after their long-running private syndicate won $100,000 in today’s Lucky Lotteries Super Jackpot draw.
The Moreton Bay region friends won the guaranteed first prize of $100,000 in Lucky Lotteries Super Jackpot draw 10785.
“Oh my god! Are you telling me we’ve won $100,000?” one of the winning women said when lottery officials called to break the news.
“This is just so unbelievable! I have purchased tickets with my closest friend for years and years.
“Half of this is going to her. We purchase tickets together every week as a little treat. We need to celebrate! We might even go to dinner!
“I’ll be calling my best friend immediately after this call to let her know! I can’t wait to tell her.
“I’ve been doing some home improvements! I’m going to finally have a new laundry!
“We’re also going on holidays soon so this will come in handy. Thank you so much. You’ve made my entire year!"
Their winning entry of three random numbers was bought online from thelott.com – the official home of Australia’s lotteries.
