“It Feels Surreal”: Pitt Meadows Resident Wins $1 Million from Lotto 6/49!

Congratulations Jean!

Jean W has a lot to look forward to this holiday season, after winning the $1-million Guaranteed Prize from the November 23, 2022 Lotto 6/49 draw.

“When I checked my PlayNow.com account I [thought] I had won $1,” recalled Jean. “I didn't realize it said ‘Gold Ball winner of $1 million’ and thought it was just an advertisement and had to call a customer service rep to make sure it was true.”

The Pitt Meadows resident — who purchased her ticket on B.C.’s only legal gambling website, PlayNow.com — was most excited to share the news with her two daughters.

Jean is waiting to have a larger celebration at Christmas, where she will share her news with her grandchildren.

Apart from buying a new Harley Davidson motorcycle and a car, Jean also plans on sharing her winnings with her family.

On how it feels to win the lottery?

“It feels surreal and it will provide some financial relief.”

Congratulations Jean, wishing you and your family all the best!
