It was quite impulsive that she decided to play along, but it turned out to be a good idea that she did. She was a big winner, which she didn’t even realize when she first saw that she had won.

Jacqueline, who has been playing the lottery for over 35 years, was surprised to find that she had won no less than 860,000 crowns in the short time her dog was seen by a vet.

Jacqueline herself revealed that she remembered the screen where she was checking to see if there was a win on her voucher which looked a bit different than it did before. However, she thought her earnings were much lower than they actually were.

“I looked closer and thought I had won $1,000, but after looking again I saw it said ‘Big Winner’ and saw the actual amount. “, she said, according to Mirror.

The lucky woman had bought a ticket with six of the seven so-called Encore numbers in the correct order for the Ontario Lottario draw on July 23, securing her a prize of over NOK 860,000.

When she went to the Ontario Lottery and Gaming Corporation Prize Center in Toronto to collect her winnings, she was asked what she wanted to spend the money on.

Here she made it clear that she had no intention of shopping. On the other hand, she had bills to pay, like buying a new car. She just wanted to leave the rest of the money in the bank.

“I love Instant Games. It was a fluke to buy this coupon. I was in the store for a while while my dog ​​was at the vet,” she says.

Jacqueline also revealed that the winning voucher was purchased from the Old Time Convenience store located on Old Simcoe Road in Port Perry, a small town about 84 kilometers from Toronto.
