Julie bought the ticket at the Safeway Gas Bar on 130 Avenue S.E., and says it’s only one of five or six times that she’s bought a Lotto 6/49 ticket.
She shared the $5 Million jackpot with two other tickets that matched the same six numbers – sold in Ontario and Quebec.
Her share of the prize is $1,666,666.70, which she says will go toward a new vehicle and a new home for their new family.
“We want a place with a nice big backyard to play in,” she says.
