A $20 Scratch & Win ticket purchase led to $100,000 in winnings for a couple from Milk River.

Brenda and Michael Laham purchased their ticket when they stopped for fuel in Lethbridge.

When Brenda scanned the ticket in-store, the screen lit up with the winning number.

“I was shaking like a leaf, and I couldn’t breathe, but I was smiling big,” Brenda said with a laugh.

“The first person I told was my husband, Michael!”

Now that the two are celebrating their win together, they’ve started thinking about how they’d like to enjoy the windfall.

“We have no plans yet,” said Brenda.

“We will probably pay some bills, and then we’ll see.”

The ticket was purchased from the South Country Co-op Chinook Gas Bar at 20-4140 4 Avenue S in Lethbridge.
