The lucky winner of a $20million Powerball prize says she will finally be able to buy a house with a big garden and chickens.
'I've always dreamt of having a house with a big garden, loads of fruit trees, a veggie patch, and chooks!' she told Lotterywest.
The woman, in her 60s, said she will also treat herself to a massage chair and donate some of the money to her favourite charities.
'Over the years I've done lots of volunteering and fostering for dogs' refuges around Western Australia,' she said.
'Now with this prize I can make a real difference.'
She purchased the winning ticket from Newsxpress Halls Head after a busy day of shopping in Peel, about 75km south of Perth.
After loading her heavy bags into the car, the woman was about to drive home when she remembered she'd planned to buy a Powerball ticket.
She almost didn't bother going back - but changed her mind at the last minute.

The woman was in 'disbelief' that she had all seven numbers and the Powerball.
'I kept waking up in the night thinking I had dreamt it, checked my numbers again and went through the same disbelief,' she said.
'My eyes were blurry from staring at the ticket so much.'
The $20million prize was the result of a six-week jackpot run.
A Saturday Lotto special event will offer West Australians the chance to win a share in a $10million prize.
