TORONTO, ON – Jacqueline Pelletier is celebrating after winning a $75,000 top prize with Instant Neon 3x Multiplier (Game #1895) on a ticket she purchased at Speedy Lotto on Highway 69 in Hamner.

“I love to play instant tickets,” said Jacqueline while at the OLG Prize Centre in Toronto to pick up her winnings. “My favourite is INSTANT CROSSWORD and now INSTANT NEON 3X MULTIPLIER!”

Jacqueline purchased her ticket while out on her usual walk with her dog. “Let’s just say it was a $75,000 walk!” she laughed. “I was in total disbelief when I realized my ticket was a winner! I immediately called my husband to share the good news. He was laughing because he couldn’t understand a word I was saying,” admitted Jacqueline.

Jacqueline said they will pay off bills first, “then we’ll make some improvements to our camp up north,” she concluded

INSTANT NEON 3X MULTIPLIER is available for $3 a play and the top prize is $75,000. Odds of winning a prize are 1 in 4.01.
