The Lott said it was the first time in more than 10 years that four entries had shared a Powerball division one jackpot.

According to the Lott’s media release, the woman from Woolloongabba, Queensland, did not answer calls from lottery officials at first as she was in the shower.

“I am in shock,” she said, according to the Lott, when she finally answered the life-changing phone call.

“This is just a one-off. I saw it was an $80 million draw and I just picked all my lucky numbers, such as my family’s birthdays.

“It’s crazy. I don’t know what to say. It’s insane.

“I’ve just gotten out of the shower and saw I had some missed calls. I thought, ‘What the hell?’

“I can buy my own house. Travel. I’m just speechless.

The Victorian woman, from Mooroopna, laughed and screamed at her win, the Lott said.

“Oh my god,” she screamed when called by officials, according to the Lott.

“That’s crazy. Are you serious? I thought, ‘Who is calling me this time of night?’ and I thought this was a weird number.

“That’s my family and friends in the background. I can’t hear you over everyone screaming.

“I can’t believe this. All day I’ve been saying, ‘Someone please call me tonight, I want to win Powerball’.”

The woman said she used the same lucky numbers she played every week.

“Oh my God. I’m in shock,” she said,

“I can retire. And go on a holiday. I’m shaking. I can’t stop.

“I definitely won’t be able to sleep tonight.”

The mystery Victorian winner was a ticket bought in East Brighton Newsagency on Hampton Street in Brighton.

The mystery Western Australian winner will be handled by Lotterywest.

Another 43 winning entries claimed a slice of the $1.3 million division two prize pool.
