Stephanie & Danielle have been regular players of ONTARIO 49 and LOTTARIO for the past 10 years. "We were sitting at a table having a morning coffee when we checked our tickets," Stephanie shared while at the OLG Prize Centre in Toronto to pick up their winnings. "The first ticket we checked we won $500, so I was happy. The next ticket was the big one - I was shocked! I said to Danielle, 'I think we won $2,000! I showed him the screen and that’s when he said, 'No, that's $2 million!'"
"I felt like I was in a dream," Danielle said. "I jumped up and gave Stephanie the biggest hug then started pacing. It's such a shock and unbelievable experience."
The couple plans to invest and take some time to think about how to spend their winnings. "We will celebrate and consider some adventures," they concluded.
The winning ticket was purchased at Pennock's Tourist Service Inc. on Cordingly Lake Road in Nakina.
