Couple lands life-changing AU$3.2 million Saturday X Lotto prize

The lucky couple chose to participate in Saturday X Lotto's draw on August 8, 2026. This particular draw had only two division one winners, and one of those tickets belonged to residents of Adelaide. Each division one winning entry from draw 4701 is entitled to a substantial AU$3,164,474.87 ($2.24m). This fortunate couple bought their 5-game System 7 entry online through The Lott's official website.

In an interview with The Lott, the couple revealed they knew about their life-changing lottery win and were awaiting the call. What’s intriguing is how they entered the recent Saturday X Lotto draw. The husband shared that after a small win from the Weekday Windfall on Friday, he decided to enter the Saturday X Lotto draw the next day. It was a very last-minute decision. I had a little win on Friday night from a Weekday Windfall ticket, so I decided to put it into a Saturday entry, he explained. After the Saturday X Lotto drawing, he recounted sitting in front of the computer and discovering they had won a life-changing prize. We just about had a heart attack. Then we celebrated, he said. When contacted on Monday, the husband confessed they had been eagerly waiting for the lottery's call. We’re very good today because we’ve been waiting for your call! The phone has been next to me all weekend, he said. In an interesting turn, the Ingle Farm couple hit division two six times, bringing their total prize to AU$3,220,510.97 ($2.27m). When asked about their plans for the windfall, they admitted the prize would completely change their lives. The wife mentioned their top priority was paying off their mortgage. We’d love new cars also. It’s life-changing, she added.
