She was spotted by the Sunrise camera crew as they were visiting the Rosebery North Newsagency, where a different Sydney syndicate of 10 lucky punters had bought their division one-winning ticket.

“Let me just do this properly,” she said before waving her prize money in the air.

“Look at that, winning, winning, winning, winning.”

A Victorian mum was one of two division one winners, taking home $50 million — with a ticket she purchased online at the last minute.

The woman, from Melton, vowed to spend her winnings on her children.

She was the lucky holder of one of the two division one-winning entries in Powerball draw 1420.

However, her contact details were incorrect, meaning she didn’t realise she was successful until Friday morning.

She received the news while at work and couldn’t contain her excitement.

“I can’t believe this,” she said. “What a dream come true.”
