A Victoria man says he was in disbelief after he won a $1-million lottery prize earlier this month.
Beau Williams says he was in a grocery store when he learned of his Lotto Max prize from a draw on June 7.
"I was at a Save-On-Foods and had to check my ticket five times because I didn’t believe it," he told the B.C. Lottery Corporation.
"I gave it to the cashier to check and I was in disbelief," he said.
The Victoria resident now plans to travel and save up for a home with his $1-million windfall.
"I’ve always wanted to do a road trip across Canada," he said. "A couple years ago, my girlfriend and I were going to drive across the country and then COVID hit."
Williams bought his winning ticket at a Shoppers Drug Mart along West Saanich Road, according to the B.C. Lottery Corporation. The ticket distributor will get $10000 for selling the winning Scratch-Off ticket.
