According to The Lott, the woman was in complete disbelief and the news sent her mind scrambling.
“I was driving and I’ve turned into some random street. I don’t know where I am,” she said. “Funnily enough, I was joking around with a friend earlier this morning saying if I won division one in Powerball, I’d go on a holiday around the world.
“I definitely didn’t expect to win the entire jackpot tonight.
The woman said after a tough few months, the money would be “life-changing”.
“We will celebrate eventually. Once I’ve processed this all,” she said.
The winning ticket was a 50-game QuickPick bought online.
