Mother-of-six Ann Henry, 50, won £4,493,783 in Saturday's Lotto draw.
She said the win was predicted by an elderly gipsy woman to whom she gave a sandwich and a cup of tea from her roadside burger bar and diner a fortnight ago.
Mrs Henry, who is married to Gary, 47, said the win would change her life.
"We've been getting up at 5.30am to prepare the snack bar, six days a week for the past 10 years," she said. "So we're looking forward to someone else making the tea and butties.
"The funny thing is the win was predicted by a customer. It was a really horrible wet day and I was working behind the counter when a little old lady came in absolutely soaking wet through.I felt sorry for her and so I gave her a cup of tea and an egg sandwich on the house to warm her up.
"We got chatting and she told me a she was a true gypsy and could predict the future. Then she said I would win the lottery. She said the win would be soon, and the amount I'd win would begin with a four but she couldn't tell me how many zeros there'd be.
"Then she said she'd be back at Christmas to see what has happened."
After the gypsy woman finished her cuppa and the sandwich she walked back out into the rain - and vanished.
"She walked away from the snack bar and I went outside to see which way she went, but she'd gone. There was no sign of her," Mrs Henry said.
