"I've been playing Wednesday X Lotto since I was 21 and I've used the same numbers since then," the woman said. "They are all my family's birth dates. I've never been tempted to change them in case I stopped playing them and then they come up!"
The woman, who is now retired, won $759,300 from the ticket she purchased from Bay Newsagency & Card Center in Glenelg.
The winner said she already is making plans for her windfall.
"I have a passion for the racing industry, and I've always wanted to own a share in a racehorse, so this will finally allow me to do that," she said. "I was about to go out for coffee with a few girlfriends, but now we might get cake, too!"
