More than three days after the draw, a Seaford woman has claimed her $868,000 division one prize from Saturday’s X Lotto.

The woman said she almost didn’t purchase the ticket.

“I was walking past the newsagency and saw the Saturday X Lotto offer was $5 million, so I had to do it,” she said.

“I’ll pay off the house mortgage, and with the cost of living rising day by day, this will help tremendously.”

The ticket was purchased from the Seaford Lotteries Kiosk in the Seaford Shopping Centre.

The Lott is still on the hunt for the second SA-based division-one winning entry from draw 4267.

The Lott spokesperson Anna Hobdell is urging all lottery players who purchased a Saturday X Lotto ticket from TerryWhite Chemmart Henley Square in Henley Beach to check their tickets today.

“What a surprise to end my holiday, maybe Perth is my lucky place,” he said.
