A Regina woman is the lucky winner of $100,000.
According to a release by Sask. Lotteries, McKayla Montana scratched her $5 Crossword Multiplayer Zing ticket to win big.
Montana had purchased the ticket at a 7-Eleven in the 2100 block of Pasqua Street.
“Right after I purchased the ticket, I went to my mom’s house, scratched the barcode and realized I won,” Montana recalled.
She immediately confirmed her win three times on the Lotto Spot! app before she returned to the 7-Eleven, where she had purchased her ticket, to scan it using the in-store self-checker.
According to the release, the cashier was just as shocked with the result.
“She screamed, ‘Oh my god, congratulations!’ ” Montana said, adding she was shaking and couldn’t believe this was happening.
Montana isn’t sure what she will do with her winnings, but she does know she wants to take her family on a trip somewhere in the summer.
“I’ve always loved the mountains,” she said.
