“I’ve only been playing Lotto for a month or so for a bit of fun. I’m gobsmacked to win a prize this big,” she said.

“This is life-changing. I can now pay off my personal loans, buy my first home and go on a family holiday.”

The young mum said she will keep it real and not go over the top with any purchases, except to treat her kids to some new toys.

“We had two-minute noodles for dinner last night. We were all too shocked to do anything more,” she said.

The other Division One winning ticket was sold at Bedford Pharmacy and remains unclaimed.

Bedford Pharmacy store manager Joseph Ling was delighted to learn they had sold their first Division One ticket under the current ownership.

“Congrat’s to the lucky individual, whoever they are,” he said.

“May this be the first of many Division One tickets that churn through our terminals.”

WA’s Division One winning Saturday Lotto tickets are among seven winners nation-wide to share in the $4 million prize pool.
