A WOMAN who told her family that she was 'destined' to win in the People's Postcode Lottery landed £200,000 just two weeks later.
Beth Gartside, 32, had considered cancelling her lottery ticket but told her parents 'one day' she would win big. Now the mystic mum-of-three said she'll use her winnings to buy her dream house with husband Stephen Clayton, 39 - and treat her parents.
Beth, from Stalybridge, said: "It's unbelievable. I just feel so lucky. I thought I'd win but I just didn't think I'd win this much. About two weeks ago, I was sat in my parent's living room and I told them, 'I just feel like I'm destined to win the Postcode Lottery!"
She added: "I wasn't joking, I was dead serious. Maybe I'm just delusionally optimistic."
