A western Sydney woman no longer has money troubles and plans to indulge in a little luxury after winning $15.63 in Powerball.

The 41-year-old mother-of-two, who wants to remain anonymous, paid $11.55 for the winning ticket in Thursday's draw.

"We're struggling at the moment, don't worry about that," she said in statement released by NSW Lotteries.

"This is going to make a big difference to our lives.

"I'll use the money to pay off our mortgage and help family and friends. I'd also like to help some charities.

"There are lots of things that we couldn't do before that we can do now."

She's also dreaming of luxury cars, overseas holidays and special Christmas presents for her two teenage boys but admits having trouble comprehending the massive windfall.

"Until I've seen the cheque I won't believe it 100 per cent," she said.

"I'm still not sure if it's really true but if I could have my dream car it would be a Range Rover Sport."

"We had looked at buying a new car recently, just normal family cars, but they seemed so overpriced. Now I don't have to worry how much I pay."
