$100,000 scratch 'n win prize in Air Ronge
- EFN Staff | May 29, 2014
Annie Sanderson got a big surprise on her lunch break.
The Air Ronge resident bought some scratch 'n win lottery tickets, which revealed a $100,000 win.
Sanderson bought two lottery tickets to scratch during lunch at the Co-op Marketplace in La Ronge. When she revealed eight words on the $5 Super Crossword - which would mean a $1,000 prize - she decided to get a second opinion.
"I thought, 'I better get this checked out!'"
She took the ticket to the clerk to check.
"The terminal went crazy," Sanderson said with a laugh.
Her ticket had actually matched 10 complete words and won the game's top prize.
"It was pretty hard to get back to work after that."
Sanderson plans to pay some bills, buy a new vehicle, and do some minor renovations on her home with her prize money.
