A Tamworth man who is in his late 20s won life enhancing Instant Scratch-Its lottery prize worth $520K which he gets in $1,000 a week for the next 10 years.

The $10 Live the Life Instant Scratch-Its ticket was purchased at CTC South Tamworth, Shop 3, Southgate Shopping Centre, 4-10 Kathleen Street, South Tamworth.

The Lottery official talked to the winner and confirmed the win.

“Oh my god! I was going to have a heart attack,” he told an official from The Lott.

“When I scratched the top prize, I thought to myself, ‘Wait, wait, hang on! Is this right?’.

“I was frantically reading the instructions on the back to see if I’d won, and I ran to my sister to see if I was right.  

“While this type of money isn’t a lot for some people, I consider it life-changing. It’s really made a drastic change in our lives.

“I’ll be accruing the prize weekly to eventually put down a house deposit for my first family home!” he exclaimed.

“We’ve wanted to buy a property for so long now, and this has really brought it forward! “It’s wonderful.”
