A Hillwood grandfather near Launceston, Tasmania, has struck gold after winning a $2.2 million division‑one TattsLotto prize in the draw held on Saturday, June 21, 2025. The life-changing ticket was purchased at Mowbray newsXpress and Lotto.
Unbeknownst to him, he only checked the ticket after his wife—alerted by local buzz about the store’s big wins—urged him to verify it. “I’m absolutely rapt, mate!” he exclaimed when officials confirmed the prize. With plans already brewing, he’ll quit his high-stress job, fully pay off and renovate his home, buy a new ute, make sound investments, and support his children and grandchildren.
Store owner Sourav Kumar shared the excitement: Mowbray newsXpress has now sold two division-one winning tickets in the same draw—one claimed by a 12-person syndicate and the other still waiting to be claimed. The community is buzzing with speculation and hope.
The winning numbers were: 6, 24, 10, 42, 1, 30, with supplementary numbers 18 and 16. Locals are encouraged to check their tickets—especially if they bought theirs at Mowbray—just in case someone else is still holding an unclaimed fortune.
