Lotto luck has washed over WA after the Dockers’ shocking loss on Friday spelt disaster for fans in the State.
One fortunate West Aussie ticketholder netted a jaw-dropping $1.6 million after matching Saturday’s winning numbers to secure the division one prize.
Three other division one winners from across the country will be taking home their slice of the $6m jackpot.
Division two produced 47 winners — including seven from WA — who each banked a cool $13,339.30
Good fortune continued in division three, with more than 1,000 players scooping up a handy $905.60 each.
The winning numbers for draw #4599 were 23, 6, 38, 1, 15 and 18. The supps were 32 and 24.
Luck in the west comes after a couple from Perth’s northern suburbs found a humble way to celebrate their $1.4 million Lotto windfall, heading straight to the local Chinese takeaway for a few indulgences.
The Banksia Grove pair won the division one prize in a Saturday Lotto draw after buying themselves a SlikPik 18 ticket.
But they didn’t immediately learn of their win. The penny dropped when they spotted a post on a community social media page about a winning ticket sold at Banksia Grove News and they quickly confirmed they had the winning numbers.
“I think we’ll treat ourselves to a seafood omelette at our local Chinese tonight,” the couple said after collecting their cash.
“And maybe some extra spring rolls. We’re not flashy people. It’s all about enjoying the little things in life.”
