An Adelaide couple from Myrtle Bank have become instant multi-millionaires after winning $10 million in Tuesday's Oz Lotto draw. The woman, who wished to remain anonymous, purchased the ticket online after her husband complained about his job.
Upon checking the results, she initially thought she had won only a few dollars. 'I logged on and saw we had won and thought it must just be a few dollars,' she said. The reality of the $10 million prize left her reeling with excitement.
The win has allowed her husband to leave his job and the couple to pay off their mortgage. The woman, however, plans to continue working because she loves her job. 'We didn't want to jinx it because we thought it couldn't be true but we cracked a bottle of champagne to celebrate,' she added.
The winning numbers in Oz Lotto draw 1250 on 30 January 2018 were 24, 12, 45, 5, 40, 31 and 2, with supplementary numbers 30 and 16. The couple has yet to decide how to spend the remainder of their windfall.
