The Portland couple were one of six division one winners for Saturday's draw with each pocketing $1,015,392.69.

The winner plans to share some of the money with her family and use the rest to retire early.

After trying to contact the pair yesterday, an official from The Lott finally got onto the overjoyed wife on Tuesday morning to break the exciting news.

When the woman answered the phone she was in disbelief asking the caller if it was a prank.

"Please tell me you aren't joking," she said. "You have no idea what this means. This is making me cry so much.

"I'm feeling really lightheaded. I think I am going to pass out, I need to sit down.

"My heart feels like it's about to beat out of my chest. I think I might be having a heart attack.

She described the win as an "absolute blessing" and said she couldn't wait to tell her husband but wanted to come up with a fun way to let him know.

"Maybe I will do champagne showers and tell him we're millionaires," she said.

The woman plans to share some of her million-dollar win, with her family.

"Well, we definitely will help our family a bit," she said

"This will definitely be used so we can really enjoy our retirement in the future too.

"I'm so overwhelmed though that I am not really sure what I'll do. What can't I do, is the question?"

Matt's Lotto Cards & Gifts owner Matthew Jowett, who sold the winning ticket, said he was celebrating making one of his customers a division one winner.

"Isn't it fantastic," he said.

"We've popped up some balloons and streamers and we've been sharing the news with all of our customers.

"They are all so excited and hoping they're next to buy a division one winning ticket from our outlet.

Mr Jowett said about 15 months ago they sold a division one winning ticket - an Oz Lotto store syndicate in which 10 customers shared in over $12 million.

"It was awesome," he said

"The entire team would love to congratulate the winning pair. We hope it brings them so much happiness and joy.

"We love hearing about Portland locals winning and we can't believe we're the ones to have sold the division one winning ticket."

The winning numbers were 33, 28, 15, 30, 11 and 39. The supplementary numbers were 35 and 19.

There were three winners from Victoria, two from Western Australia and one from Queensland.
