$2 million 20X SUPREME win in Edmonton!

Matthew McDougall has some advice for his fellow lottery players: “You can’t win if you don’t play!”

At least, that’s the advice he gave himself when he picked up a couple 20X SUPREME tickets.

One of those tickets turned out to be a $2 million winner! McDougall, who shares this win with his partner Thaiwan Warulang, said he took a break from buying his usual scratch ticket and picked up his winning 20X SUPREME ticket at the Shell Lotto Spot location at 7535 75th Street in Edmonton.

“I had been buying a different ticket, but I hadn’t won anything in a while,” he explained while claiming his prize. “So, I thought I would try this one.”

The winner said he handed the ticket to his partner to scan on the Lotto Spot app to see what they had won.

“At first, I thought we won $2,000,” said Warulang. “But there were too many zeroes for that. Then I thought maybe $200,000.”

“Matt looked at the screen and was like: ‘I think you missed a zero – that’s $2,000,000!’” she laughed. “Well, oh my God! We won two-million-dollars!”

The couple said they haven’t made any plans for their windfall yet, but they don’t anticipate they’ll have a problem coming up with ideas.

“We booked a month-long trip to Thailand just before Christmas,” said Warulang. “Maybe we’ll upgrade our plane tickets!"

The couple said they’re also hoping to help their families and invest.

“The thought of being debt-free is more than enough,” said McDougall. “We’re going to invest wisely and make sure we’re comfortable forever.”

20X SUPREME and other exciting scratch tickets like the new JACKPOT family games are available at Lotto Spot retailers across the region.
