Lethbridge local surprises family with $200K Scratch & Win!

James Hill won $200,000 on a $10 100X THE CASH Scratch & Win ticket and kept it a secret until he could pull off a big surprise. 

“I lied to my [adult] kids in the car and said I won $45,” he laughed. “Then I went to my grandson’s birthday and called everyone to the living room to tell them I’d actually won $200,000!” 

Hill said the excited reactions were worth the wait—And speaking of worth the wait, he’s finally going to purchase a new vehicle for himself after years of wanting to. 

“I’m going to start looking right away,” he said. “Then I’ll put the rest into savings!” 

“It feels really good,” he smiled. 

Hill purchased his winning Scratch & Win ticket from 7-Eleven at 680 Columbia Boulevard in Lethbridge.

Myth: I can improve my chances of winning if I play“smart”.

Fact: Your personal strategies, superstitions or “lucky” rituals have no impact on the final outcome of a game.  Due to the random nature of the draw, it’s impossible to predict what combination of numbers will be drawn or which SCRATCH & WIN ticket in the Retailer’s display will be a winner.
