Saying “yes” to Encore paid off for Brenda Foster of Wallaceburg.
She matched the last six of seven Encore numbers in exact order in the April 9, 2021 Lotto Max draw to win $100,000.
“I’m a regular lottery player,” Foster, 64, said in a media release.
“I like playing Instant tickets, but I always switch it up.”
Foster , a married mother of one, was at the store when she decided to check her ticket using the Ticket Checker.
“All these bells and whistles went off and I saw $100,000 appear on the screen,” she said.
“I was in disbelief.”
She plans to pay some bills, help her family, and complete some home renovations with her winnings.
Encore offers 22 ways to win and can be played in conjunction with most lottery games for an extra $1.
There is an Encore draw every day.
The winning ticket was purchased at Jimmy G’s Variety on Murray Street in Wallaceburg.
