Humpty Doo Newsagency staff member Kerrie Magree said the two winners she had served today were still processing the life-changing news.

“They were shaking, one person when I told him he was shaking, they lost sleep over it,” she said.

She said the locals would be staying in the rural suburb and encouraged other winners to come forward.

She believed about five people had so far claimed their prize.

“Come in and check your tickets,” she urged.
