An Ottawa man has returned from picking up his lottery win after he matched five numbers with the Daily Grand lottery game.
Dusan Todoric matched all five numbers to win a second prize of $25,000 a year for life in the February 21 draw.
Todoric, however, opted for the $500,000 lump sum prize.
“I decided to try Daily Grand this week,” he said while at the OLG Prize Centre in Toronto to pick up his winnings. “This is my first big win.”
Todoric, a retiree, checked his ticket using the OLG app when he discovered he was a winner.
“I was shocked I had to scan it 10 times to be sure it was true. I showed my family right away and they didn’t believe it either. These things don’t happen to us.”
The father and grandfather plans to share his win with his family.
“This win is all about my wife. I want to ensure we have a comfortable retirement. I will also treat our daughters to something special.”
The Daily Grand is a national lottery game with a top prize of $1,000 a day for life for matching the five main numbers plus the Grand Number.
The second prize is $25,000 a year for life for matching the five main numbers.
Daily Grand is $3 a play and draws take place on Mondays and Thursdays.
