TORONTO, ON – Stephanie Kell of Tweed is $1 million richer after winning with INSTANT ULTIMATE (Game #2397). Stephanie is one of the top prize winners from the draw held on January 4, 2024.
Stephanie, 32, says this is her first major win. “I’m not a regular lottery player. I normally reach for the ULTIMATE ticket during the holiday season. I was cleaning my kitchen when I remembered to check my tickets on the OLG app. I completely froze when I saw the amount,” she shared while at the OLG Prize Centre in Toronto to pick up her winnings.
“I ran out to the garage to tell my husband. He couldn’t believe it,” Stephanie said. “We were both so shocked and in disbelief!”
She plans to pay off some bills and invest her win.
