After the draw on Saturday, July 12, officials from The Lott encouraged Echuca ticket purchasers to check their entries, as the winning ticket was unregistered.
Officials cannot contact winners with unregistered tickets.
One of Echuca’s own was the lucky ticket holder, and was delighted to see his numbers drawn.
“Wow, it’s hard to believe,” he said.
“It’s been so nerve-racking carrying around this unregistered ticket, I’ll definitely be registering any tickets from now on.
The man, who has chosen to remain anonymous, is looking forward to wiping his mortgage and supporting his adult children to own their first homes with the $919,034.33 prize money.
“I don’t think it will click until I’ve received the funds, to be honest,” he said.
“I’ll be paying off the mortgage for sure, then I’ll put some aside for the kids and their home deposits.
“I’m sure I’ll enjoy the rest but be very responsible with it ... it’s beautiful.”
The recent win is the 36th division one-winning entry sold by the shop.

Echuca Lucky Lotto staff sold the winning entry, with manager Eric Davey decorating the shop in celebration.
This ticket is the 36th division one-winning entry the shop has sold.
Mr Davey also wished the best for the Echuca man, who is also the first division one winner from the Goulburn Valley in 2025.
“We hope our division one winner can enjoy their prize and get to experience their dreams come true,” he said.
Three division one-winning entries were purchased in each of Victoria and Western Australia, along with one in South Australia.
