A Beaverlodge woman has taken home $100K after adding Extra to her Western Max lottery ticket.
Leona Roberts says she is “still in shock” after her massive win during the May 21st draw, and says her entire family is “thrilled” to have an extra financial cushion after the COVID-19 pandemic.
“I’m very happy and surprised. I called my mom and my daughter,” she says. “They’re thrilled!”
During her prize claim interview, Roberts says she gave her tickets to her husband to check on the Lotto Spot app and was shocked to learn they won big.
“COVID was hard on us all, so it’ll be nice to have a cushion in the bank,” she says.
Roberts says she plans to buy a new truck and keep some of her winnings tucked away for some extra savings.
The Beaverlodge winner purchased her tickets from the Circle K at 826 1st Avenue in Beaverlodge and claimed her prize by matching the last six digits- 4999101.
