Congratulations Palwinder!

Getting stuck at work during last month’s snowstorm had a silver lining for Palwinder S, who discovered he scored a Daily Grand prize worth $250,000 from the December 19, 2022 draw.

“I didn’t believe it,” he recalled of the moment he discovered his win. “I thought it was $250 or $25,000 and then realized it was a lot more than that!”

The Surrey resident — who purchased his ticket on B.C.’s only legal gambling website, PlayNow.com — couldn’t wait to share the news with his partner. 

“My wife was so excited! She didn’t believe it at first and then I showed her some screenshots of my PlayNow account.” 

Palwinder plans to use his win in a “positive manner” and looks forward to making a few dreams come true, thanks to his prize — including purchasing a home and starting a business. 

Palwinder said it feels “exciting” and “amazing” to be a lottery winner.

Congratulations Palwinder! Wishing the best for you and your family in 2023!
