Camlachie woman wins $1M with scratch ticket

A welding inspector from Camlachie plans to take a Disney vacation after winning $1 million with an instant lottery game.

Kerry-Anne Hudgins recently picked up her winnings from the prize centre in Toronto after she won the Instant Millionaire Multiplier's top prize.

The Ontario Lottery and Gaming Corporation (OLG) said the mother of two only occasionally buys lottery tickets and picked up the instant​ tickets around the holidays.

“I was pretty excited and may have used a few choice words as I wrapped my head around the reality of winning $1 million," Hudgins laughed. “I shared the good news with my friends and family, and no one believed me at first."

Hudgins said she plans to pay off her mortgage and visit "all the Disney theme parks.”

The winning ticket was purchased at Circle K on Indian Road South in Sarnia.
