The Mornington, Victoria, man, who chose to remain anonymous, told The Lott officials that his ticket for Saturday's TattsLotto drawing, which he purchased at Mornington Authorized Newsagency, was par of a decades-old routine.

They weren't anything special, but I just stuck with them as I couldn't be bothered changing them. That's what did it," the man said. The routine paid off Saturday in the form of a $407,441.52 jackpot. The winner is now making plans for his winnings. "I'll start by paying off the mortgage, getting a new car and helping the kids out. Hopefully, at some point, we can travel overseas too," he said. "It will also speed up my retirement plans for sure."
