An Ellenbrook man's Wednesday Lotto purchase as he waited for his girlfriend at the shops, has turned into a $1 million win.
Thanking the long line his partner was in, he used the time to grab a Wednesday Lotto ticket from Grand Boulevard Lotteries Kiosk in Joondalup.
"It was spur of the moment," he said.
"My partner was taking longer in the shops than usual, so I thought I’d grab a Wednesday Lotto ticket."
Lotterywest spokesperson James Mooney said the win is WA's tenth millionaire thanks to Monday and Wednesday Lotto in 2023.
"I'm sure our latest millionaire will never complain about waiting in a line again," Mr Mooney said.
"It's been a solid week for WA, along with our Wednesday Lotto winner, the draw also produced three WA Division Two winning tickets, worth more than $4,200 each.
"Those tickets were sold from Subiaco Square News Lotto Plus, The Lucky Charm Victoria Park, and Winning Streak Lottery Centre in Warwick."
The next major jackpot for WA players is Tuesday's $20 million OZ Lotto draw.
Tickets are available in-store, online and via the App before 6pm on the day of draw.
