Queensland has had 100 division one winners, Western Australia 63, South Australia 37, Tasmania 16 and the Northern Territory six.

Two postcodes in Australia have had four division one lottery winners in the past year, the beachside town of Port Macquarie in NSW, and the western Townsville postcode that includes Kirwan and Thuringowa in Queensland.

The four winning tickets at that Queensland postcode were split between two different newsagents.

In Victoria, the postcodes for Altona Meadows, Sunbury and Melbourne have all won three division one prizes this year.

In NSW, Wentworth Point and Penrith have had three division one lottery winning entries, while the Queensland suburbs of Gladstone and Mackay both sold three.
