One incredibly lucky Australian is set for life after netting an almost $5 million Division One prize in Tuesday night’s Lotto draw.

Bought from Raine Square Newsagency, the win is Perth’s second set-for-life win this year, with the first coming at a news agency in Northam in August.

Likely to ease their cost-of-living woes, the fortuitous winner will net themselves a healthy $20,000 every month for the next 20 years.

Lotterywest spokesperson Zoe Wender said it was a “great week for WA”.

“We’re still waiting to hear from three Saturday Lotto players that won $1.29 million over the weekend,” she said.

“If you bought a Lotto ticket recently, our advice is to check those numbers as soon as you can.

“We hope to meet these winners at Lotterywest HQ very soon.”

The three WA residents — who have yet to come forward — will each take home nearly $1.3 million after matching all six winning numbers.

Another eight West Aussies pocketed more than $14,000 after winning division two prizes.

The winning numbers for draw #4505 on September 21 are: 6, 21, 24, 29, 32, 42 and supplementary are 25, 30.

The wins come two days after one lucky New South Welshwoman became the sole winner of the eye-watering $22 million Powerball prize.

The woman discovered she had won while sitting at work next to her colleagues.

She was so excited she began jumping up and down with excitement in the office.

The winner plans on buying a house, setting her family up and travelling.

Two lucky West Australians shared the division two Powerball prize, each winning $108,768.
