It's a dream for many but only a handful of lucky people will get to experience the process of what happens if you come across those winning numbers.
"This is major news for the South West!," Callows Corner Lottery Centre owners Elizabeth and Ted Callow said.
"There's going to be a lot of excited locals across town [Wednesday]Â and I expect the good news will spread quickly. Â "We've had quite a few Division 1 wins over the years, but this is one of our biggest. It's great news!"Â
It was only just over a year ago the Busselton store struck Division 1 Lotto luck – selling a ticket worth $1.1 million which was shared among a syndicate of four friends.
Saturdays's win comes after a struggling family from Midland had the shock of a lifetime after finding out they pocketed millions, not thousands, in the state's second Saturday Lotto Superdraw.

The family bought the Division One ticket at the Canning Vale Newsagency and originally thanked them for what they believed was $420,000 worth prize money but they were wrong.
"We had to sit them down and explain they'd actually pocketed $4.2 million," Lotterywest spokeswoman Pina Compagnone said.
