A man who stacked shelves in Tesco for a living has quit his minimum wage job after winning more than £1 million on a £6 bet he made when he "felt lucky".
Dad-of-three Jason Mandara scooped £1,305,269 on a Betfred mobile phone slot game, and now plans to set up his own business after leaving his job of 12 years.
He also wants to buy a four-bedroom house, a new car, a posh holiday and an extravagant Christmas for his family.
He told Daily Star : "I can't believe what has happened.
"This kind of money is going to change my life forever.
"My partner Sian, who I've been with for seven years and is a shop assistant who has always worked very hard like me, still doesn't believe what has happened."
Jason, 30, from Bedworth in Warwickshire, had just finished a supermarket shift and was on the school run when he had a go on the Megajackpots Cleopatra.
"I had a spare five minutes after getting to the school to pick up the kids.
"I felt lucky so had a go on the slots because I could see that a £1.3 million jackpot was up for grabs," he said.
"I was panicking at first when I'd won that much and kept it to myself.
"I went to bed early because I was so tired after my Tesco shift, and when I woke up I noticed that I had a call from Betfred verifying that I had indeed won."
Jason quit the £1,300-a month job he's had at the Bedworth Tesco store since he was 18, telling his boss he had "just become a millionaire."
"He didn't believe me just like everyone else. I still handed my notice in."
Jason now wants to set up a roofing business with his winnings, and is considering investing in property.
The family's semi-detached home, owned by Jason's father, and their 14-year-old Vauxhall Astra are also set for an upgrade.
