An ordinary trip to the gas station turned out to be anything but for Tamara Amyotte and Louie Rezansoff.
Their spur-of-the-moment decision to pick up an 88 Fortunes Scratch & Win ticket netted them $100,000.
The Prince George residents purchased the ticket from Super Save Gas on Victoria Street and were in the truck when they decided to scratch the ticket.
“We just won $100,000,” Amyotte shouted after discovering they won. “Oh my goodness!”
Rezansoff was speechless for a moment before he could reply.
“I must be seeing things,” he finally exclaimed.
As for their plans for the win, they both look forward to helping out family and friends and Rezansoff is going to put a down payment on a house. Amyotte looks forward to purchasing some new furniture with her portion.
“This win means a lot to me. It will change my life considerably,” Amyotte said.
