Lethbridge resident James Hill won $200,000 on a $10 Scratch and Win ticket.
After telling his adult kids he only won $45, he later went to his grandson’s birthday and told everyone he actually won the big prize.
Hill says the excited reactions were worth the wait.
Speaking of worth the wait, Hill is finally going to purchase a new vehicle for himself after years of wanting to. “I’m going to start looking right away.”
“Then I’ll put the rest into savings,” he adds. “It feels really good.”
Hill purchased his winning ticket from a convenience store in west Lethbridge.
