Congratulations Freddie!

A relaxing day at home watching TV wasn’t in the cards for Freddie M, after learning that he won the $500,000 Extra prize from the June 12, 2023 Daily Grand draw, from a ticket he purchased on PlayNow.com.

“I was at home on my couch watching TV, I checked on my phone and saw the amount,” recalled Freddie of the moment he found out he won. “At first I thought it was a glitch, but I checked my ticket [on PlayNow.com] and it confirmed the correct amount.”

The Victoria resident was excited to tell his wife. “She didn’t believe me at first, but she is very happy now!”

While Freddie is taking some time to decide what’s next, he is hoping to go on a “nice big trip” to Europe.

On how it feels to win the lottery?

“I feel very at ease. I do not have any problems and I can spend a bit more freely.”

Congratulations, Freddie! Wishing you and your family all the best!
