A St. John’s woman is a million dollars richer thanks to a Lotto 6/49 draw last month.

Helena Bragg’s ticket matched all 10 numbers for the guaranteed prize on July 6th.

She got the shocking good news while out picking up some wine and flowers.

“I bought the wine first, then went into Dominion and checked my ticket,” says Bragg. “That’s when the guy working told me, ‘Umm, this says it’s a major winner.’”

She admits forgetting all about the flowers in her excitement.

Bragg plans to buy a yellow convertible like one that she owned some years ago. Other priorities include home renovations, paying off bills, sharing the wealth with her family, and donating to charities that are special to her.

The winning ticket was bought at the Needs Convenience on Logy Bay Road, which receives a seller’s prize of $10,000 or one percent of the winnings.
