Lotto: Millionaire Medley makes one lucky West Aussie $1 million richer
There was only one winner of the division one prize in Wednesday night's Lotto draw, and they were a West Aussie. The lucky player struck gold in the Millionaire Medley draw and won a cool $1,000,000. The winning numbers were 28, 20, 32, 31, 8, 10, and the supplementary numbers were 23 and 22. In division two, a pair of West Aussies won a handy $8,672.60 and 53 more won a less impressive $774.35 in division three. Wednesday night's success in the state follows on from the success of an Aussie pair of players who won a staggering $15 million each in Tuesday's Oz Lotto draw. Weekend winnings were also abundant for two Perth players who bought tickets from opposite sides of the Swan river and both took home $1.42 million. The slips that matched the numbers for Saturday's division one prize were bought from Banksia Grove News and The Lucky Charm in Rockingham. Lotterywest spokesperson, Zoe Wender, revealed that Saturday Lotto saw the most wins per year. 'Since the start of 2025, WA has celebrated 36 wins thanks to Saturday Lotto, which continues to deliver the most division one wins for WA players each year,' she said.

Lotto: Perth woman in her 70s claims $4.2m slice of Saturday's $30m Megadraw jackpot
The West Aussie winner of Saturday's Megadraw has come forward to collect her slice of the $30 million jackpot, revealing how a 'funny feeling' prompted her to buy the lucky slip. At the eleventh hour, the woman in her 70s decided to go back to The Lucky Charm in Harrisdale and purchase a ticket for herself after she bought one earlier as a birthday gift for her adult son. 'There was something in the back of my mind telling me to go and buy another ticket,' the winner said. 'I managed to get to the newsagents in Harrisdale before it closed on Saturday and thought nothing more of it until I was shopping the next day and decided to check my ticket in-store. 'I was shocked when the girl in the store quietly told me I won, but I couldn't let myself believe it until I got to Lotterywest to verify the win. I don't think I slept a wink that night.' Overjoyed by the mammoth win, the woman from Perth's southeast plans to pay off her mortgage and set off on a holiday with her newfound fortune. Saturday's Lotto luck follows a tidy division one win in Monday night's Millionaire Medley game. The $1 million ticket was sold at Riverton Forum Lottery Kiosk, with the winner yet to claim their cash. Lotterywest spokesperson Zoe Wender said the State's recent big wins come after a string of division one hauls this month. 'WA has celebrated eight division one prizes since the start of July and we hope to see that number grow following tonight's $20 million OZ Lotto draw,' she said. 'It's been absolutely freezing in Perth over the last few days so it's wonderful to hear heartwarming stories of Lotto wins changing the lives of West Aussies.' Punters will get the chance to be in the running for Tuesday's $20m Oz Lotto jackpot, with tickets available for purchase online or in-store until 6pm.
