‘TOTAL SHOCK': Colleagues celebrate massive Lotto win
It took perseverance, patience and dedication — and it paid off big time for a group of workers in Northam. The 28 colleagues had been playing Saturday Lotto together for more than 20 years, each putting $5 weekly into a kitty to buy system tickets. They finally hit the jackpot when they won a staggering $1.6 million on April 12 — but didn't realise they had won until recently when they checked their ticket. 'I was in total shock,' the syndicate organiser said after checking the ticket at Northam Central Newsagency. 'We've had a few small wins over the years, including a division two win, but you never expect a division one win to actually happen.' It means each worker takes home $58,000, with holidays, renovations and paying down mortgages among the many plans. Northam Central Newsagency owner Nicki Malinowski said a big win always created hustle and bustle in the Wheatbelt town. 'Once word gets out that there's a division one win in town, everybody gets excited,' she said. 'Our last division one win was back in August, so it's great to have another one so soon.' The next opportunity for West Australians to take home a major prize is in Tuesday night's $70 million OZ Lotto jackpot. 5, 45, 23, 27, 7 and 9 Supps: 36, 13

Bunbury couple win $1m in Lotto Millionaire Medley while waiting for son to get a haircut
Their son was getting a haircut so rather than wait, why not go buy a Lotto ticket? Besides, it was what they always did when they visited somewhere new — except this time it was a very different ending. The Bunbury family where in Mandurah when they dropped into Lakelands, where their son got a haircut and they bought a Millionaire Medley from Lakers News. It was a life-changing decision. 'If I ever travel to a unique or different area, I'll visit a Lotterywest retailer,' the mum said. 'As my son was getting a haircut, I decided to grab a ticket rather than sit there and wait.' The split-second decision led to the couple becoming instant millionaires. They said that while the prize would make life more enjoyable, they were for now letting the incredible win sink in before making any big decisions. Lotterywest spokesman James Mooney said that it had been a great month for Lotto players in WA. 'In the space of a little more than a week, Lotterywest has created four new WA millionaires thanks to Saturday Lotto and Millionaire Medley,' he said. 'This year, WA has celebrated 28 division one winners and it would be great to see this tally grow following tonight's $50 million OZ Lotto jackpot.'
