“Oh my god! Oh my god! You’re joking?” she said.

“How does this happen? Oh, my goodness. I don’t know what to say.

The woman, who doesn’t buy a ticket every week, said she had only won “small amounts like $11” previously.

But she said she knew what she was going to do next.

“I’ll be seeking financial advice right away,” she said.

How Australia’s lotto winners spent their cash

“I can pay off my children’s mortgages, and I might finally take a holiday. I haven’t had one in years.

“My passport must be expired. I’ll have to get it renewed.”

The woman bought her ticket on The Lott website. The winning numbers were 11,7, 21, 17, 9, 13, and 24, with the Powerball number 11.
