Hundreds of lucky Scots have scooped nearly £8 million on the People's Postcode Lottery.
More than 600 neighbours in Wishaw, North Lanarkshire, banked part of the combined prize pot.
Six of the winners netted the biggest share, as they had the full winning postcode of ML2 0EN, netting them £368,461 each.
The windfall is the biggest single prize pot to be awarded in Scotland in the lottery's history.
Among those to land a six-figure sum was Jean Moffat, 74, who screamed with joy as her prize cheque was revealed.
She shouted: "Wow! I can't believe it!"
The gran-of-six was so stunned by the win that she dropped her cheque.
After picking it back up, she said: "I'm going to frame it and put it on the wall. It's amazing.
"I'm over the moon, absolutely over the moon. I'm going to help as many people as I can with it."
Jean wasn’t the only person in her family to scoop a prize as hundreds of people across the town netted £8,092 per ticket.
She added: "My son across the road won, my cousin won, and my friend across the road.
"There's loads of people that I know that have won.
"The kids have been more excited to me! It's kids, they're always wanting something!"
When asked if she wanted anything for herself, Jean said: "I don't need big fancy things.
"I'll get a new oven. I went for one yesterday but they weren't in stock.
"I can get the dearer one now! I bake all the time so I'll need a new one!
"I'll still be happy with my fish suppers, I'll not be switching to caviar!"
Katrina Drummond, 47, was another to receive a prize cheque for "368,000 smackaroonies".
The mum-of-one added: "I would have been happy with just one thousand. Anything after that is a bit of a miracle. It's completely life changing.
"It'll be enough to help out friends and
