The Aspley woman told The Lott that she had bought the ticket because her birthday was coming up.
“I was shopping the other day, and it’s coming up to my birthday, so I thought ‘Why not?’ and purchased a Powerball ticket.
“The funny thing is too, I almost lost it! I had to pull over on the way home from the shops because I thought I had left it there.
“After that, I put it in my glovebox, and I completely forgot about it until this morning.
“I’m scared to breathe in case this isn’t real. We’re in complete shock.”
The Queensland mum, who bought the winning ticket at Nextra Chermside Newsagency in Brisbane, said she had a feeling she was going to win a major lottery prize at the start of the year.
“At the start of the year, I had a really strange feeling I was going to win a major lottery prize,” she said.
“I told my parents about it, they said, ‘Don’t be crazy’, but I just had this strong feeling.”
