"I WAS IN DISBELIEF"

Jul 17, 2024 | 4:06 PM

Kristina Loeppky, a Sylvan Lake resident, is new to buying scratch tickets and had some beginner’s luck when she won $100,000 from a SET FOR LIFE scratch and win ticket.

“I scratched it when I got home and saw the win. We went right back to the store to check if it was true!” She said, “I was in disbelief! I had to talk to the manager to confirm! It just feels amazing.”

After paying some bills and putting some in savings, Loeppky hopes to purchase a new SUV.

Loeppky purchased her $5 SET FOR LIFE ticket from Canco at 1-117 Lakeway Boulevard in Sylvan Lake.

SET FOR LIFE gives players the chance to win up to $1,000 a week for 25 years. With overall odds of 1 in 4.84, players can also win up to $1,000,000 plus additional prize categories of $100,000, $50,000, $10,000, $1,000, and other cash prizes.
