A HOUSEWIFE who won £30,000 in the Postcode Lottery has shared everything she did to make sure she scooped the massive prize.
Sorelle Fraser, from Teesside, North Yorkshire, managed to bag herself thousands of pounds just by manifesting, she claims.
The mum-of-one told how she would wash dishes at her kitchen sink and think about getting a call from the Lotto saying she had won.
Admitting she used to daydream about a telephone conversation daily, Sorelle believes she thought the cash prize into existence.
And in July 2021, her phone finally rang saying her entire postcode had won £390,000 – which she took a £30k chunk out of.
Speaking to US podcaster Timothy Schultz, Sorelle said: "I would just visualise and daydream that I was having a phone call and that they would call me up and say ‘Hi Sorelle we’re the Postcode Lottery and we just want to let you know that you've won’.

“It would just be a couple of seconds whenever I got the chance I would do multiple times a day and then that's exactly what happened."
Despite arguably being prepared for the moment, Sorelle was speechless when she picked up the phone.
She then had to sit on a video call to find out how much she had won.
She added: "It was it was like time just stood still – I could see the figure and obviously it's the most money I've ever had in my life.

The Postcode Lotto is a monthly subscription where you win based on where you live.
Brits pay each month to be entered into the draw and if more than one person in your catchment area wins, you have to split the prize.
It costs £10 per month and could see you scoop up a prize between £1,000 or £3million.
