A Kitchener woman has hit it big with a $1 million lottery win.
Esther Tin Thangbal of Kitchener won the Gold Ball Draw from December 6, 2023 after playing the lottery for two years.
“I bought my ticket quite a while ago! I set it to the side and forgot about it for a few months,” said Esther in a statement. “I happened to see the ticket in my purse and remembered I had yet to check it. When I realized it was a winner, I had some mixed emotions. This win came at a special time, and I didn’t know how to feel. I shared the news with my husband, and he had a similar reaction. It was definitely a shock!”
She said she will use the money to pay bills, donate to medical research and share with her family.
The winning ticket was bought at Stop 2 Shop on Hazelglen Drive in Kitchener.
