麻豆精选 resident June Bakala.

A 麻豆精选 woman discovered a couple more zeros on her scratch-and-win ticket after putting on her glasses to check how much she won.

June Bakala recently purchased a Sparkling Riches Scratch & Win ticket produced by the BC Lottery Corporation.

鈥淚 was at home and thought I had won $2,000,鈥 Bakala said. 鈥淚 turned on the lamp and put on my glasses and realized it was $200,000!鈥

She texted her family with a picture of her winning ticket after she validated her win at a retailer. 鈥淭hey were excited for me!鈥

Bakala is retired and plans to 鈥渢ake a little trip鈥 with some of the money.

The ticket was purchased from the lottery kiosk at Orchard Park Shopping Centre in 麻豆精选.
