A lucky player from Wales won a life-changing £200,000 in the Postcode Lottery Millionaire Street draw. However, the winner, Maria, decided to keep the news hidden from her husband for a special reason.
A surprise reveal
Maria, a mum-of-four from Llandeloy, wanted to wait until her husband, Chris, got home from work to share the exciting news. She planned a sweet surprise reveal and said, "I haven't told my husband yet. I'll wait until he gets home. I might give him the golden envelope with a coffee. But I'll make sure he's sitting down. There will probably be a few expletives."
Dreams of luxury
Maria has already started thinking about how she wants to spend the money. She plans on going on luxurious holidays around the world with her family and making renovations to their home. "We're doing up the whole house, with an extension and kitchen and we need a new roof. I'd also love to go to South Africa, Indonesia, Italy, and Sicily," she said.
Other lucky winners
The pleasure of winning didn't stop with Maria. Three other neighbors on the same street also won prizes in the draw with the SA62 6LJ postcode. A dad-of-two and his wife won £400,000 after doubling their tickets, and an ex-Royal Logistics Corps Sergeant also won £200,000.
More big wins
In other exciting news, another lucky punter in Plymouth won double the prize money in a Postcode Lottery jackpot by using one simple tactic. Plus, a former member of the Royal Navy revealed she only won her prize due to a delayed house move. And in Runcorn, a fortunate resident won an entire £388k Postcode Lottery prize because they were the only person playing in their postcode.
Gamble responsibly
Remember to always gamble responsibly. Establish time and monetary limits before playing and only gamble with money you can afford to lose. If you have a gambling problem, contact the National Gambling Helpline or visit the Gamstop website to be excluded from all UK-regulated gambling websites.
