A Welland woman drove into the OLG Prize Centre into Toronto with the chance to win anywhere from $100,000 to $500,000 on the BIG SPIN wheel.

Sandra Ash drove home with $150,000 after trying her hand at the wheel (similar to the Big Wheel at the end of The Price Is Right TV show.)

Ash, a regular lottery player for about seven years, says instant games are her favourite.

“I won $10,000 on THE BIGGER SPIN four years ago and I was determined to come back and spin the BIG SPIN wheel!” she shared while at the OLG Prize Centre in Toronto to collect her winnings.

“When I saw I won a SPIN, I went to the store expecting to win $10 or $20. When I saw it land on BIG SPIN, I knew I had won, and I was totally shocked!”

Ash said she couldn’t get home fast enough to tell her husband the big news.

The mother and grandmother said it was overwhelming walking into the room with the big wheel. “I was stunned when I saw the BIG SPIN wheel land on $150,000. What a wonderful experience.”

She plans to take a trip out west with her husband. “I will take myself shopping for a little treat and do some renovations around the house. The rest will go in the bank to be saved for the future.”

The winning ticket was purchased at Avondale on Niagara Street in Welland.
