Samantha Thompson won an electrifying $150,837.40 on LIGHTNING LOTTO!

The Weyburn winner said she only plays LIGHTNING LOTTO occasionally, but this particular occasion took Thompson by storm!

“My coworker was with me [when I bought a ticket] and was the one to tell me I had won,” she said. “I just said, ‘I’ve gotta run home!’”

“It was very shocking,” she continued. “I’ve never won this much money in my life!”

Thompson has already been busy making plans on how to enjoy her new windfall.

“My husband and I are going to fix up the house and do some renovations,” she explained. “We’re planning a fishing trip up to Clear Lake as well!”

“It just feels surreal,” she admitted. “I don’t think it has sunk in yet!”

Thompson purchased her winning LIGHTNING LOTTO ticket from Prairie Sky Co-op at 215 2 St. NE in Weyburn. She won her prize instantly by matching all five numbers selected in the April 7 draw: 7, 20, 31, 36, and 45.
