A woman living in the BC Interior is $200,000 richer thanks to a lucky lotto win.
According to the BCLC, Quesnel's Patricia Benson sat down at her kitchen table after an exhausting day of running errands. The next few seconds would change her life forever.
Berston played Casino Royale II, a Scratch & Win ticket. Quickly, she realized this ticket won her the $200,000.
"The first person I told was my husband," said Berston. "He was pretty excited. I haven't told anyone else about winning since I am in shock."
Berston has no plans to spend her winning yet. She wants to use her new-found cash when it is safer to do so.
"I want to stay safe and be safe, so I probably will not celebrate anything until it is safe to do so."
