Donna Lee Carlson could not believe her luck when she checked her LOTTO MAX ticket for the September 25 draw.

The Iron River resident won $100,000 on the EXTRA draw, and she said she had to check her ticket over and over. “I couldn’t believe that this would happen to me,” she said. “That’s why I checked the ticket so many times. It just didn’t seem real. I was so happy.”

The happy winner plans to use her winnings to pay off a vehicle she bought recently and to put some of the winnings away for a later day. Carlson purchased her ticket at Tellier Pharmacy, located at 5015 50 Avenue in Bonnyville
