Street Prize
Magnificent For Mildenhall
The week just got better for three neighbours in Mildenhall. The lucky trio, who play with postcode IP28 7DQ, each received a £30,000 cheque after winning today's Street Prize. Players can scoop £30,000 cheques every single day throughout February's draws with our #30KADAY Street Prizes.
Totally Amazing
Teaching assistant Carla found out how much she'd won on a video call with Street Prize Presenter Jeff Brazier.
As her cheque was revealed, Carla exclaimed, "Yes! That's amazing, totally amazing. Thank you so much!
"I've never won anything before and I know everyone says that but honestly I'm not a lucky person."
Mum-of-two Carla married her childhood sweetheart, Matt, in October and is planning a romantic trip with the windfall.
She said, "Matt was my first boyfriend at 15 but we went our separate ways then met up again four and a bit years ago. We'll definitely be having a honeymoon now! I would love to go to the Maldives so that's definitely an option for the future.
"I don't think I've been this happy since my wedding day!"
Carla also plans to treat her two daughters by helping them out with driving lessons and a car. However, first she plans to celebrate and commented, "We'll have a takeaway, a Chinese banquet! And a bottle of prosecco, maybe two!
"My mouth is starting to hurt from smiling too much. I don't think it'll sink in till later on."
After presenting Carla with her prize, Jeff Brazier said, "I'm chuffed for Carla and hope she and Matt can now have the honeymoon of their dreams thanks to the win.
"I'm sure the good news will help lift the spirits of our other lucky winners and I hope they can treat themselves to something special."
