Winnipeg Local Wins $1 Million on LOTTO MAX!

Congratulations Edward!

Edward H was surprised to learn he had a winning lottery ticket. While checking a collection of tickets at a Winnipeg retailer, he discovered one of his tickets won $1 million on the October 6 LOTTO MAX draw!

The Winnipeg local says he typically waits until he has several tickets to check at once.

"I usually save up a stack of tickets and check them at Garden City," he explained. "I usually check them on the self-checker first."

What appeared on the screen was so unexpected that Edward needed a second opinion: "I almost couldn't believe it," Edward recalled. "I had my wife come over to check, and she asked someone else to look at it. He said, 'I think you won a million dollars.'"

Edward's million-dollar plans are focused on family, home, and a little fun.

"I'm going to do some renos to the house," he said. "I also want to help our son-in-law pay for his medication and get a new set of golf clubs!"

As for how it feels to become a millionaire?

"Unbelievable!" he said. "It feels great!"

Edward purchased his winning ticket from Shefield Express, located at 2305 McPhillips Street in Winnipeg. He won his prize by matching one of the 12 MAXMILLIONS drawn on October 6.

Congratulations Edward!
