Newsagencies across St George certainly have a lucky streak.
The latest resident to score a nice sum of $200,000 is a Bexley woman who snagged the big prize in Lucky Lotteries.
Her ticket was purchased at Kogarah Railway News on Railway Parade.
The win again proves that pure luck is the game – she only recently started playing lotto, and has now become a whole lot richer after Thursday’s Mega Jackpot draw, which can be bought for $5.50 a ticket.
Choosing to remain anonymous, the woman won the guaranteed first prize, and will spend her new-found cash on visiting family overseas.
“I’ve only been buying these tickets for two months or so,” she said. “I kept saying to my family ‘I’m going to win that $200,000’ and there it was.”
“You read about other people winning and you never think it is going to happen to you but there you go.”
