Lateres Webster of Hamilton, Ont., says some of the cash from her first big lottery win is earmarked for a kitchen renovation.
Webster, who typically plays Lotto Max, 6-49 and a couple of instant-win games, says she learned of the big win after her son checked some tickets during a trip to a local store.
“I asked him to check my ticket for me. He came home and said, ‘Mom, you won!'” Webster recalled.
