Bungendore man claims $2m Lotto win

A Bungendore man has bagged a ‘life-changing’ $2 million in Saturday’s Lotto, the same draw that saw a Belconnen claim an ‘overwhelming’ windfall.

The New South Wales resident held one of the 15 division one winning entries nationally and said he was looking forward to buying himself a new home.

โ€œI honestly couldnโ€™t remember if Iโ€™d even purchased an entry into the draw and rushed to check on Sunday morning,โ€ he exclaimed.

โ€œThere were all these numbers that were highlighted and I thought โ€œoh, what does that mean?โ€

โ€œShortly after I figured it out and my jaw hit the floor.

โ€œFor me, itโ€™s life-changing!

โ€œIt will allow me to buy a home which is amazing. But the home must have an outdoor kitchen, Iโ€™m obsessed with that.

โ€œThen it begs the question, do you buy or just build your dream home?

โ€œIโ€™ve definitely got some thinking to do. Thanks so much, Iโ€™m absolutely stoked.โ€
