Shane Warner couldn鈥檛 believe his eyes when he checked his LOTTO MAX ticket for the Feb. 23 draw and discovered he won $100,000 on the ticket鈥檚 EXTRA draw.
Warner purchased his $6 LOTTO MAX and EXTRA ticket at the Prairie Sky Co-op Food Store, located at 215 Second Street in Weyburn, three days before the draw. He checked his ticket on the mobile app a couple days later.
鈥淚 had to check my ticket a bunch of times,鈥� he said. 鈥淚t all went by so quickly after that. I think the adrenaline kicked in. I was in complete disbelief!鈥�
鈥淚 told my wife and kids and they couldn鈥檛 believe it either,鈥� he laughed. 鈥淲e are very excited about it!鈥�
The happy winner said he has one big plan for his windfall 鈥� a family home.
鈥淲e bought a lot in the fall and have been making plans to build on it,鈥� he said. 鈥淭his will help move up our timeline.鈥�
Warner won the EXTRA鈥檚 second-top prize by matching six of the seven numbers drawn 鈥� 5882730.
