Wheatley Woman Takes Home Lottery Prize

A Wheatley woman is $75,000 richer after winning a top lottery prize.

Theresa Durocher purchased the winning INSTANT CASHINGO ticket at the Real Canadian Superstore on Talbot St. in Leamington.

“I was sitting in my favourite chair at home when I scratched the ticket. Suddenly I looked up at my spouse and asked, did I just win?" says Durocher  in a media release.“It was a lot to take in!”

Theresa says if she had won the money in her younger years, she would have spent it in a flash.

“Now that I am older and wiser, I will be thoughtful with my windfall – take a trip and take care of my family,” she says.

INSTANT CASHINGO is available for $3 a play and the top prize is $75,000. Odds of winning a prize are one in 3.24.
