A Clyde North couple will have no reason to forget Valentine’s Day in future years after having their $1.2 million TattsLotto windfall confirmed by lottery officials earlier this morning.

The Victorian pair held one of the 16 division one winning entries in TattsLotto draw 4337, drawn Saturday 11 February 2023 and took home $1,250,000.00.

The ticket was unregistered which means officials from The Lott had no way of contacting the ticketholder to reveal their life-changing news and had being waiting for the winner to come forward.

“Wow, ok! That’s unbelievable!” the happy husband gasped when an official from The Lott revealed his life-changing lottery loot.

“I went to scan my TattsLotto ticket late last night because I hadn’t checked the winning lottery numbers yet.

“It told me to call The Lott as I had a big win – I had no idea!

“I tried to call The Lott late at night, but obviously it was outside of business hours. I was wondering all night if it was true.

“I’ve been playing this marked entry for a while now which consists of birthdays and other special dates. It’s nice knowing we’ve won with these numbers.”

With $1.2 million about to boost his bank account, the winning man said he looked forward to becoming a homeowner again.

“We used to be homeowners but had to sell our home recently due to unforeseen events,” he said.

“We can now look forward to buying a new home!”

His winning entry was purchased at Billionaire Lotto, Kiosk 1 2S, Selandra Rise Shopping Centre, 2 Selandra Blvd, Clyde North.

Billionaire Lotto owners Joseph Annam and Mary Annam said they broke into happy tears after hearing their outlet sold another division one winning entry.

“Congratulations to the winners and we wish them all the best with their life-changing prize.”
