Derrick Best’s head is still spinning after checking his WESTERN 649 and EXTRA ticket and discovering a $100,000 EXTRA win!

The Camrose local won his prize on the July 23 draw.

“The first ticket I scanned was the winner,” he explained. “The cashier looked at the amount and said, ‘You won a lot of money!’”

Best said his first reaction was… animated.

“I started doing circles in the store,” he laughed. “Oh, and I was like, ‘Are you f—ing kidding me?!’”

“I’m still trying to wrap my head around it all,” she continued. “It feels so surreal.”

The new winner said he has one main idea for his windfall.

“I’m going to pay off my mortgage!” he beamed. “I’m that much closer to being debt-free!”

Best redeemed a WESTERN 649 Free Play at the 7-Eleven located at 618 10 Street in Wainwright. He paid $1 to add EXTRA to his ticket. The EXTRA numbers for the July 23 draw were: 6786123; Best’s ticket matched the last six digits.
