A Bunbury couple are celebrating a $1 million Lotto win.

They purchased the winning Millionaire Medley ticket from Lakers News in Lakelands while their son was getting a haircut.

The winner said a random visit to Mandurah turned into a life-changing decision.

“If I ever travel to a unique or different area, I’ll visit a Lotterywest retailer,” she said.

“As my son was getting a haircut, I decided to grab a ticket rather than sit there and wait.”

This split-second decision led to the couple winning a $1 million prize.

The winner said while the prize will make life much more enjoyable, for now, they are letting the incredible news settle in before they make any big decisions.
