A Nanango man has been lost for words after scratching his way to $150,000 in an Instant Scratch-It.<\/p>\n

The winning $10 scratchie was bought at the Nanango Newsagency.<\/p>\n

A spokesperson for The Lott said the overjoyed winner couldn’t contain his excitement, whisking his wife away for a celebratory lunch.<\/p>\n

\u201cI\u2019ve been lost for words ever since I scratched the ticket,” he said.<\/p>\n

\u201cI kept checking over the ticket to see make sure I wasn\u2019t making a mistake.<\/p>\n

\u201cI keep scratching my head. It\u2019s still so hard to believe this is all real.<\/p>\n

\u201cI\u2019ve always enjoyed playing Instant Scratch-Its tickets. I usually treat myself to one a week to enjoy over coffee.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt\u2019s going to help us in so many ways. Thank you.\u201d<\/p>\n

Nanango Newsagency owner Alison Warren said she was excited to hear her outlet had sold a top prize-winning ticket.<\/strong><\/p>\n

\u201cHow exciting!\u00a0We keep telling our customers that we feel due for another big win,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe\u2019ll be happily sharing this wonderful news and reminding our customers that dreams can come true.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe\u2019ve celebrated several major lottery wins over the years and it\u2019s nice to see our commemorative plaque wall continue to grow.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe wish our winner all the very best, and hope that this win will make their life a little easier and bring them happiness. We also want to thank them for supporting our outlet.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
