Almost a Costly Mistake
A man from Llandrindod Wells, Kevin Jones, recently won a record-breaking jackpot on the Postcode Lottery. However, he almost missed out on a significant portion of his winnings because he forgot about two additional tickets he had purchased. Each ticket was worth a whopping £403,638, meaning Kevin could have lost out on over £800,000.
Remembering the Tickets
Fortunately, Kevin eventually remembered the other two tickets, bringing the total value of his winnings to an impressive £1.2 million. He was the sole winner with the exact winning postcode, making him the recipient of the Postcode Lottery's largest prize to date.
Plans for the Winnings
Kevin has big plans for his newfound riches. He intends to use the money to move into a Sunny Haven Park caravan, fulfilling a long-held dream. He is drawn to the quiet and friendly atmosphere of the park and is excited to have a garden once again.
In addition to his personal plans, Kevin is committed to taking care of his family. He has two sons and a pregnant daughter, whom he wants to provide for. He also wants to assist his brother with home improvements, as his brother has always been a pillar of support in his life.
A Proud Stepdad's Premonition
Kevin's stepdad, John Davies, had a feeling that Kevin would win big. Even though Kevin believed the maximum prize he could win was £2,000, John encouraged him to aim for more. Now that Kevin has won the jackpot, he plans to rent a Bentley and take his stepdad for a special day out.
Other Lottery Winners
Kevin's win follows the story of a mum who resolved a decade-long feud with her husband after winning thousands on the People's Postcode Lottery. Another couple narrowly avoided making a disastrous decision by winning £100,000 just in time.
