A British couple who hit the biggest jackpot of their life has decided to make the best use of the windfall gain. Unlike other lottery winners, who used their prize money to pay off debts, buy a new home, or just put it into their savings account, Oliver Price and Chloe White have set their sights on embarking on their dream holidays.
The young couple from Huddersfield, Yorkshire, hit the jackpot, winning the EuroMillions lottery and bagging a prize of ?77,000 (around Rs 83.7 lakhs).

The couple, who are both casino workers, initially had a hard time digesting their win and were under the impression that they had won a small prize, before realizing the huge amount of cash that was coming their way.
"I remember checking my emails and seeing a message from The National Lottery to say I was a winner but, to be honest, I thought it would be about a fiver. I had to wait until the morning to find out exactly how much we had won, and when the amount came up in front of me, I couldn¡¯t believe it," Price told The Mirror.
Now that they know what they are getting, the couple has their goals sorted.
"I have always wanted to go to America and have actually had trips booked several times before, but each time, they have been canceled for various reasons. Both Chloe and I have Disney World Florida at the top of our wish list, so that will be the first to be ticked off," Price said.

Further, the couple also plans to move into a bigger home one day.
