After two weeks Mawson man finally claimed winning $909K Tattslotto jackpot

A Mawson man went two weeks without realizing he’d scored $909,000 in Saturday Lotto after skipping a week of purchasing his usual lottery tickets.

The Canberra resident held one of the 11 division one winning entries in Saturday Lotto draw 4327 on Saturday 7 January 2023. Each division one winning entry scored $909,091.91.

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

“Thank you so much!” he cheered as an official from The Lott confirmed his incredible windfall. “I discovered the win this morning at the newsagency, and I was left slightly stunned.

“I purchase 50 games every fortnight for two weeks, and for some reason, I didn’t do it last week.

“Therefore, I couldn’t check my ticket until this morning!

“I’ve told my wife already, and she couldn’t believe it. “It’s going to help us so much.

“Firstly, we will pay off the home mortgage. Then, we will complete some bits and pieces around the house.

“We’re very grateful!” His winning entry was purchased at Southlands Newsagency, Shop 6, Southlands Shopping Centre, 1 Mawson Place, Mawson.
