“It couldn’t have come at a better time,” he said.

“We are going to use it to go on a holiday here in Queensland and then we will pay off some bills. It will make things comfortable, a little easier.

“We are going to go out to dinner tonight as well to celebrate.”

The man, who wanted to remain anonymous, said he forgot he even bought a ticket.

“I was just flicking through my emails and saw one from the Lott,” he said.
