If you won just over R11 million, what would you?

Probably the same as the recent winner of the Lotto Plus 2 jackpot, who intends to travel to explore the world.

The mother of three, who is self-employed, is also fond of golf and intends pursuing her interest in the sport.

That's not all, the winner will donate a portion of the windfall to charitable causes, while also investing to secure her family's future.

"It's a dream come true, and I still can't believe I've won," she said after spending R200 on a quick pick.

"I'm still on cloud nine. I told my husband first, and we're both still trying to process this incredible news."

She said she played the Lotto once a week and was in "absolute disbelief" when the bank called her with news of her big win from the February 1, 2025, draw.

Having R11 million in the bank will not stop her from continuing playing, she said.

"You never know when the next big win will come."

Charmaine Mabuza, the CEO of Ithuba, said: "We are thrilled to have played a part in making this winner's dreams a reality and we wish her and her loved ones all the best for the future."
