TORONTO - Congratulations to Loretta White of Barrie for winning $100,000 with Instant Boom Multiplier (Game #2089).

“I enjoy playing Lotto 6/49, Lotto Max and Instant tickets,” shared Loretta, while at the OLG Prize Centre in Toronto to pick up her cheque.

Loretta scratched her ticket at home. “When I saw the $100,000 prize on the ticket, I thought ‘yeah, right’ but then I saw that I had matched my numbers and I was flabbergasted!” laughed Loretta.

After double checking her win on the OLG Lottery app, Loretta started dreaming. “I immediately started to think about the prize – that I could share the win with my children and my mom… that my husband and I could do some renovations on our home.”

The married mother of two says that her windfall brings peace of mind. “I’ll be able to sleep a bit easier and have a few more dollars in the bank,” concluded Loretta.

Instant Boom Multiplier is available for $5 a play and the top prize is $100,000. Odds of winning a prize are 1 in 3.83.

The winning ticket was purchased at Hi-Land News on Wellington Street in Barrie.
