Lucky Numbers win Couple $800,000 Wednesday Lotto Prize

A couple from Grovedale in Victoria, Australia are celebrating an $800,000 Wednesday Lotto win. Their windfall came from the April 7 draw. Their win is all down to a very lucky set of numbers.

They were lucky enough to be one of five division one winners in the Wednesday Lotto draw. It’s been a great time for them since discovering their win but with a few tears. The female half of the couple said their lottery success has left her “feeling very emotional.”

Only Just Stopped Crying

Speaking hours after receiving the news she admitted “I’ve only just stopped crying.” They hadn’t checked the results of the April 7 Wednesday Lotto draw. It was only when they received an email with the news did they know of their great win.

As is often the case, it wasn’t all that easy accepting that they had won. “Did I really win?’ was her initial thought.

Very Lucky Indeed

The couple use their own numbers and have been using the current selection for just a few months. “I picked these numbers because I had a feeling they were lucky, and they are.” That’s certainly been the case. The first time they were used, a division three prize was won. Now the big one has been landed, so they’re likely to keep using them.

Now the lucky winners can’t wait to tell their loved ones the great news. Celebrations were planned and their win is great news for those they know. “We just want to help our family and our friends,” said her partner.

New Computer Needed

The plan is to keep around $100,000 for themselves and share the rest with others. They do want to get a new computer though as “ours has had it.”

Their winning ticket was purchased from the Gladstone Park Lotto & Service Centre. That’s owned by Rong Mei, who was delighted to hear the news. It’s the second division one ticket they’ve sold in the past few weeks. “Hopefully, it’s the start of a winning streak and we can deliver more major wins to our customers,” said the store owner.
