A Northam resident has come forward to claim the third and final $2 million prize from Western Australia in a Superdraw held over two weeks ago.
The winner said the multi-million dollar prize was set to provide ‘relief’ after receiving Government income support.
“I’d just become debt free. Now the little things that mean a lot won’t be out of reach,” the Northam winner said.
The long time public servant and passionate hobbyist was confident the win wasn’t going to change everyday country life.
“It just changes the balance between what I need and what I want,” they added.
“I recently thought about buying a car and was going to get a second hand one, but now I can skip that hassle and get a new one. Maybe get a caravan too!”
“I’ll also look into doing some renovations to my small property, including extending my workshop, as well as donating to charities that I already support.”
“I’ve got a horse, chooks and a dog. The dog might get a new collar but they don’t seem to care about the prize too much, they just want to be fed!”
The winner was only prompted to check their winning ticket after being contacted by Lotterywest.
“Thanks to being registered as a Lotterywest member, my misplaced ticket was able to be verified,” the winner said.
