Fort Saskatchewan local wins $100,000 LOTTO MAX prize!

Guy Charrois of Fort Saskatchewan is celebrating after winning a $100,000 LOTTO MAX prize.

Charrois said he has a very specific approach when it comes to buying lottery tickets: “I only ever purchase a Classic Pack.”

The Fort Saskatchewan winner discovered his prize after scanning his ticket on the Lotto Spot app.

“When I scanned it, I said to my wife, ‘I won some money!’ and she said, ‘What? $20?’” he laughed. “Then I showed her and she couldn't believe it.”

With a trip already on the horizon, Charrois is looking forward to enjoying a few extras and checking off some major financial goals.

“We are going on a vacation soon, and we might be able to indulge more,” he said. “Then we're going to pay off our cabin and I'm going to purchase a brand-new car!”

“It feels awesome and is just a relief!”

Guy Charrois purchased his winning LOTTO MAX ticket from 7-Eleven at 7802 95A Avenue in Fort Saskatchewan. He won his $100,000 prize in the May 29 LOTTO MAX draw by matching the selection: 2, 4, 14, 22, 30, 47, and 50.
