Kathy Luck of Dresden has won $126,913.50 with LOTTO MAX.
Kathy matched six numbers plus the bonus number to win the prize in the June 16th draw.
A mother of four, grandmother of nine and great-grandmother of three, Luck checked her ticket using the OLG Lottery App.
“I thought I won $126 at first,” she shared, while at the OLG Prize Centre in Toronto to pick up her cheque.
After validating her ticket in store, the retired factory worker went home to tell her husband about her big win.
“He thought I was full of it until I showed him the validation slip – his eyes went so big,” laughed Kathy, 63.
Kathy plans to renovate her farmhouse, pay some bills and take a vacation.
“I get excited when I win $20 so this is wonderful,” Kathy concluded.
The winning ticket was purchased at Sonny’s Variety of Lindsley Street in Dresden.
The OLG Prize Centre in Toronto has resumed in-person prize claims for winning-ticket holders of $50,000 or more by-appointment only.
