An Alberta man who won $100,000 on the lottery says he plans to save “some” of his winnings.
Travis Kociuba of Irricana, Alta., won the money in the West draw on April 3 6-49.
“I was surprised,” he said in a news release on Friday. “He didn’t feel 100 per cent real, to be honest.”
“I intend to save some of my earnings, and I have to find out what to spend the rest of my earnings on.”
Kociuba used the Lotto Spot app to check his tickets, discovering that not only had he won $100,012 in the Extra drawing, but he had also been given a free play on Western 6-49 for March 30.
“I buy tickets regularly and I also buy with a group at work sometimes,” he explained. “I intend to continue.”
Kociuba bought his Western 6-49 and Extra ticket from the Gas Plus in Conrich.
He won his prize by matching the last six digits in the Extra draw – 3880261.
