A Chestermere resident is $200,000 richer thanks to the purchase of a scratch-and-win lottery ticket.
Rose Lamoureux bought her Lucky Lines Extravaganza ticket at the Cambrian Drug in northwest Calgary.
She says she scratched it almost immediately, then headed back to the store once she realized she had won.
'When I checked it there, I was in disbelief,' Lamoureux said in a news release. 'I still am.'
'I waited until late that evening when my husband got home from work to tell him and my family,' she added.
Lamoureux says she already has plans for the windfall.
'I want to pay my mortgage, share some with family, and put the rest into savings.'
