Mornington Peninsula Couple Bags $1.7 Million Lotto Win

A Rosebud couple's dreams of exploring Australia are set to become a reality after they won a remarkable $1.6 million in the TattsLotto draw. The Mornington Peninsula residents secured one of the six division one winning entries in draw 4415 on Saturday, November 11, 2023, bagging a total prize of $1,666,666.67.

The husband, who routinely plays TattsLotto (Saturday Lotto), was going about his morning when he received a life-altering call from a lottery official.

“That sounds like a fairytale!” he exclaimed with joy.

“Thank you so much. What great news!"

His habit of buying tickets online, despite his wife's skepticism, finally paid off.

“I’ve always enjoyed playing TattsLotto. I’ll buy a random ticket if there’s a draw on," he said.

“Funnily enough, my wife has always been sceptical about me purchasing my TattsLotto tickets online because she thinks people only win with in-store tickets. But today, I’ve proved her wrong!"

The couple already has plans for their windfall, with travel high on their list.

“I can’t wait to get off the phone and tell her the good news – she won’t believe me," the husband shared excitedly.

“My wife and I have always dreamt about taking a year off to travel. We want to go around Australia and explore. We can’t wait."

Their winning 50-game QuickPick ticket was purchased online at the official website.

The winning numbers in TattsLotto draw 4415 were 2, 1, 30, 28, 24, and 23, with supplementary numbers 39 and 29. You can find the breakdown of winnings here: Lucky Six Take Home Saturday Lotto 4415 Jackpot
