Guylaine Tremblay has been playing the same combination for 25 years at Lotto 6/49. According to Loto-Quebec, it took several days before checking her July 1 combination. She couldn’t believe her eyes when the terminal posted the amount of $ 6 million.
“Wait, I’ll go get my glasses!” she said to the employee at Dépanneur Lacelle in Mont-Laurier. The owner of this business will receive a check for $ 60,000 corresponding to 1% of Mrs. Tremblay’s earnings.
The latter intends to make her two grandsons happy, buy a three-wheeled motorcycle and travel when it is safer to do so.
