Slovenly Ryan Kitching, 19, reluctantantly clean his bedroom after being nagged by mum Susan when he unearthed 12 old tickets in his drawer he thought he had checked.
He was about to bin them but decided to take them to the supermarket to double-check - and one ticket contained five numbers and the bonus ball netting him a cool ã52,981.
Delighted part-time Tesco worker Ryan said yesterday: I am totally speechless - it was the happiest day of my life easily.
My mum had been nagging me for weeks to tidy my room so I started cleaning up and found a pile of old tickets.
I was about to bin them but at the last minute I got this strange feeling that I should get them checked.
Next time she nags me to tidy my room I won't need telling twice.
Mum Susan, who works in the same Tesco as Ryan in Penicuik, Midlothian, Scotland, said: I'm really chuffed for him. I'd be nagging him for weeks to clean his room.
Hopefully, he'll listen to me next time.
Ryan bought the winning ticket at the Tesco store where he works part-time on the fish counter.
