She used to play for daughter's birthdayOctober 31. And she will remember her grid validated in 2024. A retiree wishing to remain anonymous, validated a Loto grid on Thursday October 31, 2024, the day of the Halloween Super Loto.

“A flash grid”, she explains to the Française des jeux (FDJ), that is to say that its numbers are chosen at random. Moreover, when she saw these numbers appear, this retiree even said to herself that they were “ridiculous”.

Too bad, the grid is validated, with the following numbers: 3, 9, 15, 18, 19 and the lucky number: 9. The Frenchwoman doesn't know it yet, these numbers will change her life.

“Honey, we won the Lotto!” Happy birthday ! »

It was during the night from Thursday to Friday, around 3:37 a.m., that she woke up. She then consults her phone and discovers with amazement an e-mail from the FDJ informing her of her winnings: 13 million euros.

I had to wait until morning to call my daughter. During the rest of the night I kept telling myself it's not possible, it's not possible. One morning, I was finally able to call her: “Honey, we won the Lotto! Happy birthday!”

After discovering her win, the retiree first chose to treat herself by going shopping and putting everything she wanted in her shopping cart. “Usually, I always look very carefully at prices and reason restricts certain temptations,” she explains to the FDJ.

After these little pleasures (“what a joy to be able to indulge without constraint”), this jam specialist decided to “take advantage” of her jackpot. She plans to buy a new house, a car… and above all, spoil her daughter.
